when i am in the inbox, new email goes to my delete folder. Why? What am I doing wrong? I always have to check 2 folders : Inbox and Delete. Is there a setting that is making this happen? If my delete folder is open, new mail will then go to my inbox.

You must have a rule that is moving the message. 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 incorrect destination folder
as the target folder. Mailing List Manager rules run before your other
rules.
