ThunderBird only downloads emails from my web mail 'inbox'. How do I get it to recognise the sub folders I have created in my web mail using filters? I want to download all my sub folders too as well as my main 'inbox'.

POP only sees Inbox. IMAP syncs with any folders you subscribe to on the providers server

Bugger! I am using 'BT Yahoo Mail' and it appears that it is POP. Is there a way for a user to change this to IMAP, or is it up to the service provider?

That's brilliant! Thank you. Now, one final question - if I change the settings on ThunderBird to reflect those for BT's IMAP settings, what effect will it have (if any) on existing emails stored on ThunderBird?

Just installed Thunderbird. I do have IMAP, but the program only sees my Inbox, not the other folders... How do I get them in the folders view?
