I have about dozen email accounts in Outlook for Mac (Office for Mac 2011). All them use POP, but I'm planning to switch three of my most widely used accounts to IMAP. To better understand how IMAP works in Outlook, I created a 'testIMAP' account at my
ISP and configured it in Outlook. I noticed a change in the hierarchy of folders.
It went from:
On My Computer
-> Inbox
-> other folders (that received filter POP email)
To this:
Inbox
-> On My Computer
-> other folders (that received filter POP email)
-> testIMAP
-> Drafts, Junk, Sent, and Junk (subfolders of testIMAP)
I also discovered that empty copies On My Computer and testIMAP folders were in the Deleted Items folder. I'm not sure what's going on.
What's really unusual to me, is that incoming testIMAP email goes into two folders: Inbox and testIMAP.
And POP email that doesn't have a specific filter, now goes into two folders: Inbox and On My Computer.
Cluttering the Inbox with so much duplicated email seems problematic. Is there anyway to prevent this?
Thanks,

Does the recipient of a SkyDrive folder have to have SkyDrive to open my folder? What is the minimal OS the recipient needs ? I sent folders to a recipient who has a Microsoft Login, but is using Vista OS. She could not open the folders. First I sent the folders to her iPad email address, then to her PC email address, neither worked.
I sent the folders to her email address and copied myself. Of course, I was able to open the folders, but she couldn't. Does the email address of the recipient make any difference, i.e. Charter. Net?
Finder creates some hidden files in my SkyDrive folder on Mac (.fseventsd and .Spotlight-V100). I deselected syncing of these folders in client configuration and deleted these from SkyDrive via web interface. After a while I found these folders again in
the cloud and option to sync these selected again in client. I repeated this several times and always, sooner or later, these folders get selected and synced to cloud. How to permanently stop syncyng of these unwanted folders?
I would like to know where can I find folders I created with my MSN email ID? now that ID has been converted in to outlook ID, but I cant find those folders, how do i get access to those folders?
Good day MSN,
I am missing quite a few e-mails and folders with the move from MNS.com to Outlook.com. One of the folders contains critical contracts for our business and the associated attachments.
Can you please assist me in resolving this issue? I am more than happy to provide the details.
Thanks.

I have a few folders which I would like to delete from my Outlook.com account. They contain several thousand messages each.
Outlook.com won't let me delete these folders. I've tried on two separate PCs running Windows 8 Pro and Internet Explorer 10 and in all cases, the deletion fails. Outlook.com deletes around 75 messages but then stops, and either displays a message stating that there's a problem with Outlook.com (that has nothing to do with my computer) or it stops responding entirely.
I was wondering whether perhaps a moderator could take a look at my account and try to figure out if there's a problem with it?
Many thanks!
I started using Outlook.com 16 April 2013 and have only just realised that some emails older than ~ 60 days are being automatically deleted from the various sub-folders that I have created beneath my Inbox & Sent folders! This is a disaster as I need
to refer to these emails.
What seems strange is that some folders contain emails from day 1, whereas others only have 60 days worth. I have checked that I have no rules which might be causing this... I have none. I normally use Outlook 2010 to access the account via MAPI, or
from my iPhone via Microsoft Hotmail.
I have tried recovering them using the recover deleted emails feature but nothing came back...
Is there any way that I can recover these emails (several from my solicitor have some very important attachments)?
Plus how do I stop this happening in the future...?
My pictures are copied over and over in separate folders. How do I delete all of the folders and have all of my pictures together?
I use Microsoft Live Mail....
In my storage folder I had a business folder with lots of sub folders. Somehow it's gone/deleted/vanished no where to be found.
I know it's not there because my 'Message rules' can't redirect mail to those missing folders.
I've looked in C:\Users\usernamexxxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail as advised by others, but the business folder(s) aren't in the list.
So it seems they are permanently gone????? unless someone who I will be grateful to forever lets me know where there may be a trash bin I can recover them from?
many thanks
