I've created a new folder at my email account--usa.net--but Thunderbird doesn't include it in its list of folders. I'm using IMAP with Tbird 52.99.1. How can I select which folders are in the folder list?

Thank you! I knew that the answer was to Subscribe to the folder, but I couldn't find the arcane route to it.

I'm using a Pop server to download mail. A Pop account does not offer the option of subscribing to folders. How do I check the SPAM folder?

pdqpat This question relates to IMAP mail accounts and how to Subscribe to see folders.

As you do not use an IMAP mail account this question is obviously not designed to answer your query.

When you post a reponse into someone else's question, you are sending an email specifically to that person. As they use IMAP, they may not know how to help you or may not want to help. I only caught your response because I had forgotten to stop following this solved question.

Please create you own question so plenty of people can see your issue and offer help specific to your situation.
