I confirmed that this was not the source of my problem (I removed and reset
the account, and the sync problems disappeared). Still, the way the folders
are displayed in the "All Accounts" dialog is different from what I
remembered. I checked another computer, and there the Inbox is displayed
under an icon with the name of the account; on this computer, the Inbox is
displayed under an icon labeled "Personal Folders." Both computers use
Personal Folders as the delivery location for new email. Perhaps it's just
the difference between Outlook 2002 (on the other computer) and Outlook 2003
(on this computer).
