That answers my question.  I've never seen this discussed and I've always moved from folder to folder in the treeview.

I see no reason why it [opening more than one folder in one or more accounts] wouldn't work.  Thunderbird treats everything as a folder, and I see no reason why you couldn't open multiple folders whether they're in the same account or not.

I can confirm you can do this.  If you right click on a given folder (hit the menu/apps key or Shift+F10) one of the options is to open in a new tab (or new window).  You can have as many tabs (or windows) as you wish open and each of these tabs (windows) can contain a single folder from any of the accounts you have set up.
