thanks for your help.
there is one error console : 
"2012-06-05 11:40:54	gloda.index_msg	ERROR	Explosion in msgsClassified handling: TypeError: this.asyncConnection is null"

other precision : when I re-start thunderbird, the "Sent" folder (in the tree-view) appears.... this is very strange....

folder->view = all
but there is the same bug with the folder->view = unified

vincent, restarting doesn't show you the sent folder? I suspect this is an issue with deleting the account and recreating it resulting in a confused account setup. You could e-mail me your prefs.js file - help, trouble shooting information, click the show folder button will take you to the directory where your prefs.js file is. You could also look at the directory(ies) under the Mail folder to see if there is a sent folder there.

Thanks for your response.
As I said before :
1 - if I re-start thunderbird, the "Sent" folder (in the tree-view) appears....
2 - before restarting : the "sent.msf"  and "sent" files seem to be ok
