The school where I teach has recently switched all accounts to gmail. To use Thunderbird I had to register again, which gives me two Thunderbird accounts on the same left hand column. As far a I can tell, everything has migrated to the new account. Can I delete the old one--or hide it in someway? Is it safe to delete it? And how do I do it.

If you're certain there is no mail to be kept in the old account it can be deleted.

Press Alt or F10 in case the menu bar is hidden. From the main menu bar: Tools - Account Settings Select the account to be deleted in the left pane. Select 'Remove Account' from the 'Account Action' drop-down menu at the bottom.
