Another thing people have had success with, is to position your vo cursor just to the right of the inbox that was already there on the favorites bar. It seems to matter, where on the favorites bar you drop the mailbox you are dragging. So go to the mailboxes table and interact with it, then find the mailbox you want in the favorites bar, then hit vo plus comma there. Now, stop interacting with the mailboxes table, move over to the favorites bar, interact with it, move right until you are to the right of inbox, and press vo period there. Hopefully, this will drag the mailbox from the mailboxes table over into the favorites bar. Hth. Paul. On Jul 24, 2011, at 5:32 AM, Kliph&Sharrie wrote:
