Odd inbox behavior with Entourage 2008 12.1

D

Duncan Fowler

I have several Email accounts and they have been running just fine.

But recently my default account has been splitting up new messages into it's
own Email In Box and the "On My Computer" In Box.

Essentially all new incoming messages go to the Default Email's In box and
then the majority start getting moved into the one for "My Computer"

The Email accounts that are supposed to dump mail to the "My Computer" In
Box are 2 POP accounts that I have terminated but is still active in my list
of accounts.

My Default account is a Windows Live Hotmail account
(I have three additional Windows Live Hotmail accounts but they are not
having similar issues.)

And I have one Mac IMAP account.

I have re-set my permissions
I have verified my MUD database and found no issues.
I have deleted the Email account and re-installed it

None of these attempts of fixing it has worked so far.

I have another MacBook Pro as well as a Vista machine where this behavior
does not happen.

I am running Office 2008 SP1 on a MacBook Pro 2.4 with 4 Gigs of RAM and
Leopard 10.5.3.

Any words of wisdom out there??

Thanks

Chceck your rules and Mailing list manager. I bet onw of them is
redirecting e-mails to the wrong folder (ie: the Inbox in On My
computer),

Why didn't I think of that!

By the way I never created that rule.

Odd.

Thanks for the tip.

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.
