I have several accounts in my Thunderbird email... one of them doesn't have the "all mail" category to subscribe to... but just downloaded several hundred emails to this category. How would I go about adding the "all mail" designation and get it to populate?

Many thanks

"All Mail" is peculiar to GoogleMail. So you won't find it in non-gmail accounts.

I normally advise users against subscribing to it and displaying it. Everything in it that you're intended to see can be found in some other folder.

Why do you wish to be able to see it?
