Local folders and other folders

When in accounting settings, Local Folders-- Local directory is ../Mail/Local Folders, my mail folders under this Local Folders show mail.
When ../Mail is the Local directory instead of Local Folders, the mail folders won't show any mail.

But I've several accounts whose folders are parallel with Local Folders. I can't view them in TBP any more, because Local Folders is the top root folder.

Prior to this, I could view all my accounts' folders parallel to Local Folders.

I wonder if someone knows how to get it to work?

Thanks.

Never mind about the local folder issue

In account settings-->each account-->server settings-->Advanced tab, there is an option to choose the inbox. If Inbox is global (local folders), this account's folders will go under local folders. If Inbox is for this server's account, TBP will create a parallel folder with Local Folders for this account.

You need to watch that checkbox...

many times when I'm setting up an account(s) for someone, I forget about that and have to start over. Be sure to uncheck that "Use Local Folders" box so you get separate accounts.
