have my POP email accounts set up in WLM. I imported all my message
folders .They went in to Imported Folder. My question is how can I move the
folders into my Pop email account Folder.

I have a pop server account named:
1st Account
BOB

Inbox
Drafts
Sent Items
Junk email
Deleted

2nd Account

JOHN

Drafts
Sent Items
Junk Items
Deleted Items

Imported Folders

Drafts
Sent Deleted

Imported Folder (1)

Under Folder (1) are all my imported Folders with my
email messages in them.
How can I get these Folders into Bob's account

Thanks in Advance

Doug

Simple, just highlight the messages you want moved. then click on them and
drag them to the inbox of Bob's account.

I highlighted a folder then clicked the mouse button, holding the button
down, No Luck.
I highlighted it and clicked on the folder ,without holding the mouse button
No Luck.
I see the folder get highlighted and I see the color line move up to the
Account I want it i.e. let go and nothing.

Mouse is good, I even tried another one.

Thanks
Doug

You can't move *folders*, only *messages* as Roy said. If you have a folder
called Family under your Imported folders, highlight all the messages,
right-click and select Move to folder, then select Bob's account and click
New folder. Call it Family and click OK twice. You can then delete the
empty Family folder in Storage folders.
