Hi Paul, If the folders in your VIP mailbox are empty, you'll have to delete this by getting rid of the plist file. Quit mail, and from Finder use the Command-Shift-G "Go to folder" shortcut. Then type or paste in: ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/ (There's a leading tilde for your home directory.) Once in that folder remove the "VIPSenders.plist" file. Then restart mail.
