Folder list does not populate "edit send/receive group"

[Guest]

Recently migrated from outlook express 2003 to Outlook 2003, importing all
files. I've got several e-mail accounts and want to direct incoming mail to
different folders. When I try with tools->send/receive settings->define
send/receive groups->edit, the folder list tree controls comes up with only
personal folders and inbox. None of the other folders I have show up. Right
clicking on the control does nothing.

No such thing!

Not the right way to do it. Tool-Rules and Alerts is the way to do that....
And BTW, importing messages from within Outlook will have changed all the
modified dates to the date of import so functions like archiving won't work
properly....the correct method, as posted here many times, is to export FROM
outlook express....

Turns out I can do what I want by setting up e-mail rules to deal with the
various accounts. Still a bug, but avoidable.

Not a bug at all. It's the way messages are directed and always has been.
Send/Receive options has never been to redirect messages.
