[macvoiceover] Re: Keeping Mail From Different Accounts Separated

David is this mail day? I had the same problem when I set up my three mail accounts in mail. I think it is like the second or third option called discription. If you give them their own name you should end up with two mailboxes.

Rich,

The way mail works for me is that I have an inbox and if I right arrow from it, I have two items named for each of my accounts. When you created your accounts, did you give them distinctive names?

OK, I have two different eMail accounts, one for each place of employment. Each mail system has the ability for clients to connect via iMap. IMap, if not familiar, is a way to keep mail on the server, allowing you to access your mail from a remote client like macMail or outlookExpress, and since it resides on the server, it stays in sync no matter where you access it from.

So, I create my first account with macMail, and now I have an inbox full of all the mail I've stored on the server for that employer. However, macMail doesn't seem to keep folder hierarchies for each account separately the way
OutlookExpress does. So, if I now go and create the account for
my second employer, I now have one inbox with a mixture of mail from both
my employers.

I suppose I could use smart mailboxes to search on the to field of each item in my inbox and thus separate things this way, but this is not optimal, especially since I have thousands of messages in each, and macMail does not
seem to have the concept of only downloading headers (as does
outlookExpress); it'll either download all message content
(hyeaders+bodies), or no messages at all (downloading on access which can be
slow).

Does anyone know how I can get macMail to allow me to have two distinct
inboxes, one for each mail account?

Thanx in advance...

Yes, thank you much. Like I said the menu option for create new
mailbox under the menu still makes me create a smart mailbox. I see
create new mailbox, create new smart mailbox and create new smart
folder. I know I am choosing the right option but it does work using
the button or the menu button not the menu at the top of the screen.

Yes, under trash.  did you finally create a mailbox and not a smart
mailbox?

DurnO K it appears under trash. I was thinking that it would
show up under the Inbox header. Durn I feel so stupid. It is hard
to get Windows out of my head.

  I just created a mailbox as the instructions indicated.  You
might have to arrow far down the list when you go to the move to
sub menu.  I found my created mailbox, but it was way down my
list.  Also, be sure you are selecting the create mailbox and not
the create smart mailbox.

Take Care

I just checked it and all the cursor check boxes are checked.
Like I said it is funny that it says I am on the selection but it
gives me something else. Also I I can click on the new folder
button and get what you see but it still doesn't show up in the
move to dialog.

VaShaun and all,

Sorry if this appears twice but I haven't seen it come up yet
probably due to sending from my other address.

The only other reason you might not be seeing correct selection
behavior when looking through the mailbox menu I can think of is
if your cursors are not synchronized.  go to vo utility,
navigation, make sure all the cursor boxes are checked.
