Hi, Server is Exchange 2007 SP1. On my workstation, Outlook Express is setup with my email as a POP3 account. Today I created an IMAP account that is different from mine. I have a folder on my desktop with .EML files, which I once dragged out of Outlook Express for backup. I dragged these files to the inbox of the IMAP account. Everything looked fine until a few seconds later, when the emails somehow disappeared from the Inbox. (No one else was connected to this inbox.) After 5 minutes of trying to determine what happened, I found them in my POP3 account. Why did this happen? These are two different accounts altogether. Can someone shed some light on this? ED

This looks *so* much like a client issue to me... Massimo
Simple. Your POP account downloaded them again from your inbox. I would suggest you use MAPI rather than POP or IMAP. Oliver
No, I clearly indicated that the POP and IMAP are separate accounts (different mailboxes in Exchange). "Oliver Moazzezi [MVP]" wrote in message news:uYb0I6j7IHA.2544@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... Simple.
