I would have expected the top account to say:

Local Folders
Junk Settings
Disk Space

But you can change the Account Name of “Local Folders”

If you want, just change the Acount Name of the top “Mail” account back to Local Folders

Is there actually a problem… is mail not working ?

Are you using pop or imap for your email? Thunderbird has an automatic set up option.

What are your exact problems?
