[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1345566"] Mail shows any remote-server-based (usually IMAP) accounts separately even though there is some overlap. The reason for this is so that the server-based folders are shown (infected items, I giggled at that). You can't rename or re-purpose remote email folders because the Mail program doesn't have the server's permission to do that. You would want to access the remote server via a web browser to do any of that. If you'll click on the little arrow next to the Inbox and Sent under "Mailboxes," I think you'll find you have more than one account, probably that's been set up by accident. You can fix that in the preferences under accounts. [/QUOTE]
