Thunderbird Android - Tree Folder Structure

[daygle]

I have been using Thunderbird for many years but have recently started using Thunderbird on the Android.

I am really not a fan of the way folders are displayed within the application.

Inbox/Folder-1/Folder-2

Would like to see this improved to display folders in a tree format style.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

I support the suggestion. Please add nested folder structures.

Thunderbird for Android 8.1 on Android 15 on Pixel 9 Pro XL

The Folders List that is displayed when you tap the hamburger icon is one very long linear list.  All folders and their sub-folders and even their sub-folders, continuing on down the folder hierarchy - are listed in one very long list.

This might not appear to be a big problem when you have only a few folders, but I have a lot of them.  It's very difficult to find and select the folder I want to open.

Thunderbird for Windows (and for all desktops, I imagine) lists folders in a hierarchical tree structure.  You can open or close a folder to see or not see it's sub-folders.  I would like to see this implemented in Thunderbird for Android.

With my IMAP account they are displayed as

folder.subfolder.subsubfolder

which is even more confusing, so tree view would be great!

Tree structure is what we need.
