outlook where's my folders

[pm_sam]

hi all
i've got office ultimate outlook 2007.which i installed two email account's
to (e-mail address removed) and (e-mail address removed).
I got this message “This is an e-mail message sent automatically by
Microsoft Office Outlook while testing the settings for your account.â€
So i think everything is ok,not sure.why?
I made the ntlworld one the default.
Now with the msn one all my folders are installed about 15 or so,but with
ntlworld one
I’ve just got my inbox and a few others but NO personel folders about 20 –
30 of them.
Is this the behaviour of the software or is there something wrong.

Is your ntlworld account a POP3 account? Then it is normal behavior since
the POP3 protocol only downloads from the Inbox folder.

roady,thank you for a (quick) response.
yes ntlworld is a POP/SMTP account does that mean i have to create new folders
for this account.
many many thanks for your help and time.

Yes, you'll have to create the folders in Outlook as well. After you receive
a message in your Inbox you can move it to a folder of choice. You can also
automate this by using rules; Tools-> Rules and Alerts...

thanks roady.

now that i come to think about it (roady) the POP personal account will not
do for the long run.
can i get two msn.com account's into outlook.
many thanks for the help and time.
