Hi,
I just started using Big Sur. Is there a way to get Apple Mail to display one unified Inbox, as Catalina had? Right now I get one unified inbox at the top, but then each account below it (with folders I want to see) also displays it's own Inbox/Drafts/Sent/Junk. I'd like to hide those if I can.
Thanks,
James.

Bring your cursor over Favorites, it will show a + sign, click it and add the mailboxes you want. You can even select mailbox subfolders from there. This should get you the same look and feel.

Thanks. Actually, what I'm looking for is a way to hide some of the folders from individual accounts. I don't have a screenshot so hopefully this description is clearer.
On Catalina, I got:
On Big Sur, what I get is:
What I'm looking for is a way to hide the Inbox etc from the Account #1 and so on, so I can see more folders in the sidebar without scrolling. In Catalina it amalgamated them all into a system-wide Drafts/Sent/Junk/Bin/Archive folder. I was hoping there was a setting to do the same in Big Sur.
Click the little arrow to the left of "All Inboxes". This will hide/collapse the subfolders and then, just by selecting "All Inboxes" you'll see all the emails for all your accounts.
I'm not seeing a neat way of doing but if you add one of the subfolder as a Favorite, e.g. Folder 1 in your example, you can rename it, e.g. "Account 1 - Folder 1". Repeat the steps for Folder 2, e.g. "Account 1 - Folder 2" and so on. That is less than ideal but I could not think of another way.
Thanks, that solved half of the problem, appreciate it. Any idea how I can hide those folders from the individual accounts?
Thanks, appreciate your answer, it gives me some more things to play around with.
