Keep Playing around, and you should get the Webmail Working in Thunderbird with Hotmail, with all foldrers... Works Perfect. I Installed Opera, as a Backup Browser to my Firefox, but it also has Email, Built In. I Set Up Opera Mail the settings for POP, as listed by previous post. Set Opera Mail to Leave Hotmail POP on the Server. I Could Now Access my Hotmail Inbox only, in Opera. As A Backup to Thunderbird IMAP Hotmail that is temporarily set wrong, as is the Website for Hotmail. I still have to browse on Firefox to Hotmail website a dozen times a day to check my Spam Folder. I Then Went into Thunderbird, and, as suggested by another poster, 1st Went to Thunderbird Settings and Webmail-Hotmail Add On (Not Webmail), and changed the settings to use the New Site=Live. I Closed Thunderbird. Restarted, It Did not work at that that point, but finally worked after:- Going Into MSN and Signing into Live. Immediately, there was a Popup Advertising all the features. There was a Tick/check Box to Chose NOT to Show again, on signing into Live. Until Now, during the couple of days, I had been unable to access Hotmail, via Hotmal Webmail IMAP with all folders, I had resisted checking that Box, as I was too busy to read the page, so I thought I would read it next time I went to the website, so left it unchecked. However, it appears that Me Not Unchecking that Check Mark on the Live Website, was Blocking IMAP Mail Receive Send. Once I Had Checked that POPUP Page not to show again, on entering Live Website, Looked at In Box Online, signed Out, Restarted Thunderbird a couple of times and waited a few minutes, It Suddenly Worked again. Unfortunately, for me, I got Double Thousands of emails, as Kaspersky labelled them all as SPAM label, instead of Probably Mail. Works Perfect, Now. Worked near perfect for years, then, on 2nd Sept Stopped, but now working pefectly, again, with all Folders.
