Change to appearance and folders gone missing

Thunderbird Customization

Over the last couple of days the general appearance / layout of Thunderbird has changed for me. I have attached a screenshot of how it appears now, previously under the 2 talktalk e-mail addresses I had a number of additional folders I also, under SPAM, had spam folders for each e-mail address, in fact I had 2 for each of the talktalk addresses.

I first noticed the changes yesterday but after shutting Thunderbird down I got most of the old layout back, but today I see only what is in the image.

Is this some sort of an update or has my installation been corrupted in some way.

Do you mean the color bar?

No, I am missing folders that were previously present in the FOLDER PANE.

I have not made any changes to Thunderbird myself this "just" happened.

I see it now. Yes, there appears to be a bug in v159. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1615185
