Question asked on Aug 2, 2013
After importing the .pst from my Win laptop to the Mac I now have a folder named 'backup'. I don't want my emails there, they need to be in the Inbox. So, I moved them and now I have an Inbox with a sub-folder labeled 'Inbox'. Again not what I want. I then copied ALL the emails out of the sub-folder into the main Inbox. Fixed right? No. Now while syncing I am seeing my old emails twice in the new Inbox. How do I correct this? All I was looking to do was take my emails off the Win box and put them on my Mac to limit re-downloading approx. 20k emails.
