Hi,

TB 91.1.2

All of a sudden a (IMAP) sub-folder is read-only and is displayed with a different (purple) icon.

Connecting to that mail from another Thunderbird instance (another computer), the folder is read-write and regular icon.

How to enable r/w operation on that folder from that Thunderbird

I've only heard of Drop box turning folders purple when set as read only.
