Two Inboxes

Hi - Thunderbird collects my emails from Virgin Media.

In my Thunderbird folder list I have two folders named:

  • name@domain

and

  • name@domain(IMAP)

Each one has an inbox, sent, drafts etc. Some incoming emails go into the first one, others go into the IMAP one. I have no idea why. I can 'unify' them so that the two inboxes sit inside the one Thunderbird folder, but I actually just want one inbox that everything goes into.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks - Tom

Are they both for the same email account, one being POP and the other IMAP? If they are the same account, you could delete one of them.
