Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a folder "A", a folder "B" and a subfolder "A" in folder B 2. Delete folder A 3. Delete the subfolder A of folder B Actual Results: Thunderbird presents an error message roughly like "There exists already a subfolder with the name ...", which is irritating. An obvious workaround is to empty the Trash before deleting the second folder.
