After I installed Thunderbird the day before yesterday and set the language to Dutch, the default folders (such as trash and sent are now displayed in English, while on the server side, these folders are in Dutch. So e.g. instead of Prullenbak it says trash. I also have Thunderbird on another laptop, but those folders are in Dutch, both local and on the server which seems to be logical to me. Why is the language of these default files different on both laptops, and why can't I change the language for the default folders on the latest version I downloaded? Does anyone have an answer?

Thanks in advance Lowell Dykstra

It's a known problem in TB144.0, and will probably be fixed in one of the next updates. So leave it alone for the time being.
