Here is how to setup Thunderbird with your server to contain Sent and Archives inside the Inbox rather than outside in Local Folders:
- Go to -> Inbox Panel & right-click your new account name (in the folder panel)
- Choose Settings
- In the Account Settings panel, go to -> Copies & Folders
- Under When sending messages, automatically, check Place a copy in:
- Choose Sent folder: username@domain.com
- Under Message Archives chose Keep message archives in: Archives Folder on: username@domain.com
- Restart Thunderbird for good measure, or right-click the account and choose Subscribe again just to refresh everything
