Default Imap setup for Thunderbird

I am using Thunderbird and thought i'd start using Imap instead of pop. I've set it up in thunderbird and am getting my mail except that the sub folders are showing up below a folder called INBOX rather than my actual inbox.

See photo that makes more sense than me trying to explain it. How do I get those folders to sit under my Inbox? Am I missing some setting in Thunderbird? I'd love some help from a fellow thunderbird user.

Thanks.
Tim

In your thunderbird imap settings, if it asks for a prefix, try typing in "INBOX" without the quotes.
