That makes some sense if I understand it correctly: with IMAP, the folder structure moves from the local computer to the server, and all of TB's filtering of the inbox to the folders therefore takes place at server level? And any local folder structure is an exact replica of the server's folder structure? And any operation on one is synchronised with the other? So that: If I have local folders on the home machine but not on the work machine, moving messages from the server to the local folders will delete it from the server and therefore from the folder structure on the work machine (which only replicates that on the server)? Quite a change from the familiar way of doing things under POP... -- Regards, Günter mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat!
