[QUOTE="Ember1205, post: 1721362, member: 374272"] Greg, When you're referring to mail folders on the hard drive, are you referring to what you see inside of the mail program or through Finder? I wouldn't touch anything in Finder, and what you see in Mail should "map" directly to what folders you have on the mail server. Don't delete folders that are on the mail server. While you may have addressed this specific issue with the configuration change you made, you've now created a situation where your other clients will no longer be able to have the same list of messages on them as on your Mac. Once the Mac downloads and deletes the file, it is no longer available to the other clients. IMAP addresses this. I would encourage you to move looking into that up on your priority list. [/QUOTE]
