1 Personal folders inbox which doesn't receive my mail - used to work fine
my old PCl
2. email address folder inbox which does receive my mail.
I cant use junk mail rules on the inbox in the email address folder and when
I move mail to my personal folders inbox, it just crosses them out but doesnt
actually delete them.
The email address inbox folder is of type "Folder containing iMap items",
whereas the personal folder inbox is of type "Folder containing mail and post
items".
Have looked but cant work out what to change in my account set up to fix the
problem so my emails come into my personal folders inbox and I can ditch the
other inbox.
How exactly did you migrate old outlook data?

You have two sets of folders because on of them (where the messages get
crossed out) is an IMAP account and IMAP accounts ALWAYS get their own
folder sets that reflect the folders on the server. The only way you can
merge the two is to use POP instread of IMAP.
