Where is the "All Mail" folder for any/all of my accounts
Am using TBird 60.0 to manage two gmail addresses as well as one email address from my own domain.
Surely I must be missing something obvious here, but I don't see an "All Mail" view (folder) for any of these 3 accounts. How do I enable?
thanks!

All mail is not subscribed by default because it causes more trouble for people than is saves. They try and get rid of the "duplicate" mail and then complain when they deleted their gmail all mail folder they have no mail.
As for having all mail in a single folder. Thunderbird has a global search, there is nothing to be gained having a global folder as well. Although there is the option of using the unified folders view which uses virtual folders to combine inboxes etc for various accounts.

All Mail is a gmail folder so I doubt you see that on your domain. Go to File-Subscribe and subscribe to folders you want to see and unsubscribe to those you don't.
Subscribing worked for my two gmail accounts, thank you.
Doesn't work for my domain email though. Checked my hosting provider's webmail interface and there is no "All Mail" folder/view. Can't subscribe to something that doesn't exist :(
Side note, I'm quite surprised this doesn't exist with my host. Seems like basic mail functionality to me, I use it regularly in gmail to search for mails. Oh well...
