I have just installed Thunderbird on my new iMac and imported all of my folders from Mac Mail.

Some but not all of my folders are greyed out and italicised.

I have tried the "fix" of starting Thunderbird in Safe Mode etc. but that had no effect whatsoever.

How can I get my folders all looking the same?

If I don't find solution soon I will have to remove Thunderbird from my Mac.
