Renaming the sortcuts

Hello,

Is there a way to rename the shortcuts which are between the tools bar and the mailbox?

For instance, I have several imap accounts, and the first one is "Inbox", the second one is "Inbox - (e-mail address removed)", but I would like to give them different names.

The only way is to change the name of the folder source of the shortcut but for imap account you cannot change the "inbox".

You cannot change default names. You can however in Entourage 2008 set your
default account to show up on the top of the folder list where previously,
the folders "On My Computer" was always on top.

See this page for Inbox views:

It's possible you can get around this by creating a custom view for each
account and then drag that view to the favorites bar and you would see
something like this Account A, Account B where Account A would be
(e-mail address removed)

See the examples at the bottom of the link above. Do something like this:

Folder is Inbox (e-mail address removed)

Save view as Account A. Drag that view to favorites bar.
