How can I read my incoming emails in one folder?Like I do in Live mail and Outlook express.
Now we can only read emails in different folders if I am managing multiple email accounts. It does not feel so comfortable as we use Live mail and Outlook express.

...and you'd be surprised at the number of people who ask for advice on running multiple instances of Thunderbird with separate profiles because to them it is inconceivable to mix messages from different accounts. You can't please all of the people all of the time.
You have several options open to you.
View|Folders|Unified will show you virtual composite folders, so that Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Trash in all of your accounts are shown aggregated together. Beware; it's a bit buggy and in my experience doesn't count items properly.
You can use View|Folders|Unread to quickly locate all unread messages, regardless of their location.
(You can get an add-on to provide buttons for easier rotation between the various folder views if you like this approach.)
If all of your accounts use POP, you can set them to share a common Inbox under Local Folders. You can set each account to use another account's folders, so you can set up shared Trash, Sent etc.
You can set up Message Filters on each account to move messages to somewhere else
Slightly more advanced...you can use a Saved Search to create your own permanent "Unified Folder" which aggregates messages from selected folders.
Edit - ah, Anje, you beat me to it. ;-)

Unified Inbox for pop and Imap mail accounts: If you use the Unified folder view, this will show an Inbox with all emails from all accounts, with sub folder Inboxes for the individual Inboxes for the various accounts. Then you can choose to view the collective Inbox or the individual Inbox. This method can be chosen simply and quickly.
- View > folders > Unified
Setting up Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox. Pop mail accounts can be set up to use a Global Inbox in Local Folders. Imap mail accounts cannot be set up to use Global Inbox, but can use the Unified view. To change Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox, you would need to move all emails into Local Folders Inbox. Then change the settings for each pop mail account. Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the pop mail account click on 'Advanced' button select 'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders) click on OK You need to do this for each Pop mail account. Then close Thunderbird. You must do this before downloading anything otherwise the emails may continue to go to the wrong Inbox. Wait a few moments for Thunderbird to fully close and then restart Thunderbird.
