thunderbird how to apply a folder view to other folders (like evolution)

Question

How does one save a 'view' in thunderbird and then have that applied to other folders (nested and not nested) ? a bit like evolution and outlook?

For the life of me, i can't find this in my version:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.10) Gecko/20100528 Thunderbird/3.0.5

thanks,

A bit late but nevertheless - there is a button (the rightmost columns header) that allows you to select which column to show / hide. In the end there is an option of 'Apply columns to ...'. Select the desired folder and voila!
