I’ve recently added a new email address to Thunderbird. I want it appear along with the other address under the “Folders” column on the left. I thought I’d asked this here before, but I can’t find the thread. How do I do this? ---

And here I opened the thread, expecting to read something about either a) a very, very cheap wine b) Native American beliefs c) the U.S. Air Force’s aerobatics team, or d) a very, very bad movie. Oh, well. I’ll get over it. ---

I’ll get over it. I was idly hoping it’d be something about the 45th Infantry Division, better known as the Oklahoma National Guard, which starting with WWII used the Thunderbird as it’s logo/symbol/armpatch thingy. (You should see what it was before ;j ) ---

I’ve done just that and now it asks for my password. So I went back and reset everything as it was, but it keeps asking for my password. What have I done wrong ? ---

Good thing they changed it… Heh, yeah, and in any case, the Thunderbird logo (as far as I can tell, it’s the same as the one used by the Air Force Thunderbirds), looks mighty cool painted on the roofs of the National Guard Armories around Oklahoma. Dunno how they tend to be built, but the one in the city near where I used to live was a big domed building.
