RE: Inbox folder does not show in IMAP4 account

Thank you so much Microsoft support for administering this forum and
following up to support questions!

Your lack of prompt response made me move away from Windows Mail as a
messaging application and I am now happily connected again NO THANKS to
Microsoft.

Internet Explorer 7 is also causing me some troubles, but perhaps this is
just because I am not yet used to it.
I'll give it a little more time before I switch to Firefox. I read its
market share is catching up IE's.
