I don't know why, nothing was downloaded from "Friends", I'd guess that it would be critical that spelling and capitalization matched the name of the folder in Hotmail, but apart from that obvious point, I've no idea. Adding "Friends" to the Hotmail extension POP options won't automatically create a matching folder in Thunderbird. You have to do that yourself. You will also need to create a filter to move the messages to this folder. When the extension downloads mail from a folder on Hotmail it adds a header something like, "X-folder = Friends" to the message, you can set up a filter in TB to look for this header and move messages containing it to any desired folder.
