Re: Trying to get all accounts to local folder
See this article -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Global_Inbox
Note that that is only possible if all accounts (including the two Gmail accounts) are set up as POP3 type accounts. The Global Inbox option does not work with IMAP accounts.

In the "advanced" window;
I do not have the "To set the account to use the Global Inbox, select "Global Inbox (Local Folders Account)" and click "OK"."

Your account's probably set up as using the IMAP protocol. The Global Inbox option is only available for accounts set up using POP3 protocol.moonuser wrote:In the "advanced" window;

IMAP accounts can not be set up to use the Local Folders as a POP account can.The Global Inbox option is only available for accounts set up using POP3 protocol.
