A couple months ago I switched from a Windows Live POP3 mail program to IMAP. The switch was rather agonizing for me but finally it seemed to work--except: there were duplicate files--Inbox, Sent, etc. and every time I downloaded mail the search box showed
that it was searching every single folder on the IMAP list--which was a puzzle because it was supposed to be downloading. Well, today I looked at the two "Sent" folders and since once appeared to be empty I deleted it. I think that was all I did. I don't remember, and certainly
didn't intend to delete an Inbox folder but suddenly my entire Inbox has disappeared. H. E. L. P. !!
I'm using Windows 7 (with the June 13 update installed) and Live Mail Version 2011 (Build 15.4.3508.1109). I've LOVED this program. I can see a calendar pane down the right side of the desktop which is very handy. I liked the POP3 version but was persuaded
to switch to IMAP and it hasn't felt so comfortable since.
