When do you have too much information?
Modern organizations have armies of people trained in producing and publishing information, but there is a huge and growing lack of people who are skilled at organizing, analyzing and prioritizing it.

Remove Local Folders from Thunderbird
If you use Thunderbird to access an IMAP mailbox then there really is no need for "Local Folders" in Thunderbird, as all your mail and drafts can be stored on the IMAP server. There is no setting for removing the "Local Folders", but they can be removed by just a few simple edits of thunderbirds prefs.js file.
