It cured the problem. Thanks. I just noticed that all my other Common folders are deleted from the Account List. Luckily, there are only two Common folders -- $Known$ (Inbox-Known) and Trash. So I added those two. However, TB puts all new folders at the bottom of the list. And I can't move $Known$ up to the 3rd position. So, I edited the AccOrder.cfg; and that seems to work.

How to delete a Common/Virtual Folder
I installed v.2 on my laptop (Win98SE) a few days ago. I had a 1.6x before; but I didn't find an uninstall, so I simply deleted 1.6x; and installed v.2 After setting up all the Accounts, somehow I ended up with an extra yellow folder (I'll call it Folder 1A) at the end (of my Account list) that is a duplicate of one of my accounts (Folder 1). I don't know how it got there. Both Folder 1 and 1A has the same name. I tried to delete that Folder 1A; but it says that there are parked messages, and I have to unparked them first. And I found that as I unparked the messages in Folder 1A, the same thing happened in Folder 1. Is Folder 1A a Common folder or a Virtual folder? And how do I delete it without affecting Folder 1? -- Thanks in advance JM Using The Bat! 2.12.04 Under Windows 98 4.10 Build A Current version is 3.60.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
