I recently set up my outlook to sync with Bluehost's (domain hosting) IMAP email service. My left side bar has two main categories: "Personal Folders" and "mailto:[email protected]". The thing is, all my emails show up under the inbox folder in the "mailto:[email protected]" category, but they do not show up in the inbox folder in the "Personal Folders" category. Does anyone know how to make it so that the emails also show up under the "Personal Folders" category?

Firstly please use a NEWSREADER rather than Fudforums as Fudforums leach off
Microsoft newsgroups, and their software doesn't wrap lines properly.

As to your question, that's the way IMAP operates. It replicates the folders
on the server, therefore the only way to automatically get emails into the
Personal Folders inbox is to either access your mail via POP not IMAP, or to
set up a rule which (AFAIK) you will have to run manually, and really rather
defeats the purpose of using IMAP in the first place...

Rules are supported for IMAP Inboxes.
