Drafts and Trash folders are invisible

Hello Opera-friends,

I need your help after updating my opera to 11.51.
I manage three mail-accounts via opera and all three are shown in one account labeled "All Messages".
After clicking on that All-Messages account the different folders like 'unread', 'received', etc. are visible (see picture).

Below that one account I find my different three mail-accounts, BUT, when I click at the single account only two folders are visible: 'inbox' and 'sent'.

My question is, how to set the Viewing, that I can see all different folders like 'drafts' and 'trash' for each single account, too?

Thanks for your help in advance! up
Greetings from Germany,

I don't think you're supposed to have a trash folder there, just under "All Messages". Adding one there isn't supported.

First, click the view button on the mail panel toolbar to reset the mail panel to defaults to make sure everything is right.

Then, goto "shift + f12 -> buttons -> mail" and add the account selector drop-down to the mail panel. You can add a wrapprer before it to make it go on the next line if you want.

Then, what you do is switch the account selector to the account you're working with at the time and Opera's views will only show messages from that account. That way, you can use all of the "All Messages" views separately for each account.

Because of that, you can click the view button on the mail panel toolbar and hide the access points for each of your POP accounts as you'll no longer need them.

You can also right-click in the mail panel and use "show messages from" to switch accounts.
