Thunderbird 115.5.1 Windows 10 When I use the Archive Function in this latest edition of Thunderbird, it does not consistently put my emails where I specify in the settings. As far as I know, this only began occurring in this specific version of Thunderbird.

When an account setting is set to archive to Local Archive > Year by Month, it puts the file in a monthly folder in the Local, but!!! it does not put it into the Archive Folder. Nor does it put the Month folder under the specific year as Thunderbird had done in previous iterations.

But, when the account is set to Archive by Year but not by month, it actually does put it into that Year folder in the Archive folder.

I am pointing out an error in the programming of the Archive feature. If I try to manually move the month folder 2021-02 from Local to Local Archive, I get an error message that "A subfolder with the name already exists"

Is there anything that I can do to fix this on my end?

Now I have discovered that when View>Folders>Unified Folders is unchecked, the Archives appear to show correctly. However, once Unified Folders is selected, the view of Archives is all screwed up as I stated above. Please look at the image that I have attached. On the left, Unified Folders is Unchecked and the view of Archives is correct. On the right, Unified Folders is Checked ON. My archived folders are split up in two different areas - one is listed under Archive and the other is listed under Local Folders.
