I have been using Thunderbird with one ISP and one mail account for years. I am moving to a new provider. I want to add a new mail account. Everything I have seen on the forums talks about the Inbox and how to make it Global. What about all the other folders I have. Can they be shared with the new account. They are not currently sub-accounts of the Inbox. Also, when my current ISP is out of the picture, can I return to my current structure of one non-Global Inbox? Thanks.
