I have two email accounts. One is my work account (Exchange server) and the other is my personal mail (IMAP). I recently switched hosts for my personal mail and everything got screwy.
What I used to have in my folder pane (and what I want to have working again):
Under "In", there were two inboxes, one for my work acct and one for my personal acct.
Under "Sent" and "Trash" there were also two slots, one for my work and one for my personal acct.
At the very bottom, there is a little globe icon next to my main work account folder, which contains all the folders I keep online. And there's also a little globe icon next to my main personal account folder...
What I have now:
Under "In", I have two inboxes, one for work and one for personal (good!)
Under "Sent" and "Trash", though, I have only one box (for work only) (bad!)
At the very bottom I have the main folder for work with all the subfolders (with the globe icon as mentioned above), but I don't have a main folder for my personal mailbox.
Now Mail will let me make new folders for my personal account, but only under the Inbox. (ie I can make Personal/Inbox/Sent, but I can't just go directly to Sent/Personal (the main sent with the little paper airplane next to it)...My guess is that there's a difference between "mailboxes" and "folders"? Can I make sent mailboxes in imap? What am I doing wrong? With my old host everything worked fine. (old host: 1and1.com new host: westnic.com...both say they support IMAP, and I never had Exchange with either...)
