Thunderbird for Android 8.0b2 has landed on the Google Play Store and on our Github Releases page. We've removed the existing folder class system, and would love feedback on this change from new and existing users. For more information on the release, see the release notes on GitHub:

Wait, what? I use the class functionality all the time. What have you replaced it with?
In particular, I encounter these particular user stories regularly:
* I want most of my folders to be hidden in most menus and contexts most of the time.
* I need to be able to easily unhide the hidden folders when I need to access one that I rarely use.
If you've removed the functionality that enables these without replacing it with something comparable, that's a huge functional regression.

I'm not a big fan of the account selector.

I don't like that I have to select the account and it cycles through the accounts instead of giving me a dropdown to select the account like it did in K9.

Expanding the account list to show the icons doesn't help much since I have multiple accounts on the same domain and the only identifying difference is the colour. Is there a way to customize this?
