incoming messages

All of the sudden my incoming emails are going to "Folder on My
Computer" Inbox instead of my Exchange Inbox. I checked rules and no
rules are set AND this is only happening on one of my computers (my G5
not my laptop). Anyone have ideas on why and possible solutions so
that all emails go to my exchange inbox? :):)

I am having the same problem - and would love any suggestions. Mine
was working fine and then all of a sudden one day it started doing the
same thing. I have two email addresses - email address #1 is going to
my exchange inbox and email #2 is going to my computer inbox. Both
addresses are going through the same server though. I installed
nothing new when this started happening - and my tech department says
they did not do anything either. Help.

There are 3 different kind of rules:

Mailing List Manager (MLM)
Junk Mail Filter
Rules

The most likely culprit is the Mailing List Manager (MLM). It's very easy to
set up a MLM rule by accident, when you are marking a message as 'not junk'.
The wording of that dialog is ambiguous to say the least. Check if there is
an MLM entry (look for MLM entries under the tools menu) with the local
Inbox as the target folder. Mailing List Manager rules run before your other
rules.

That did it!! I had exactly the same problem, and it was an MLM rule I
create to stop some mail from going into the Junk E-mail folder.

Thank you VERY MUCH!!! (Now I have to fix the mess the mistake
left...)

bothering me for months!
