IMAP newbie question

[Pitch]

I've been using Entourage since forever, but have always set up my 10
email accounts as POP.

I'm now experimenting with putting them into IMAP, and I have one
question: is there any way to get Entourage 2004 (v11.3.6) to move all
IMAP new emails into the top Inbox? In other words, I want to figure
out a way to be able to get all incoming emails into one Inbox and
then deal with them that way. Instead of having to look at 10
different Inboxes in order to read my new mail.

Have you considered creating a new Mail View that matches all messages
in every IMAP inbox?

That may end up being the only way. But I'd like to see if anyone's
built a rule or script that could grab all of them, and place them
into that one InBox. If not, I could live with a Mail View, true.

Create an IMAP rule for each account to move/copy the mail to the desired
Inbox.

Click on the IMAP tab in the Rules window.
Create a new rule:

Criteria:
Folder is Inbox (account name)

Action:
Move Message --> Inbox ( On My Computer )
