I have multiple email accounts in Outlook 2003. How do I change which account
shows in the "Inbox"? I need to change the account in the inbox so I can sync
it with my palm.
I already changed which islisted as default and that did not change the
Inbox account.
Thanks for your help.

What mail account types are you using?
What is the current default and what do you want it to be?

I currently have a pop account as the inbox under "Favorites" which is the
default Inbox. I want to make my imap account the default Inbox so it will
sync with my Palm instead. The imap is already set as the default account so
when I send it defaults to that account.
I also have my hotmail accounts in Outlook.

Thanks.

An IMAP account cannot be used to sync with a Palm.

Would it work if I switch it to pop3?

Yes. You can also leave it as an IMAP and create a rule to copy the IMAP
messages to the default PST, which should sync.
