Adding an email acct

Post by requiredusername »

This is probably quite easy, but I can't find the answer.
I've had EPIM for a long time. Just added a new email address (xxxxxxx@gmail.com). I can send/receive email through that acct easily.
All other email accts I have attached to EPIM show new emails in the Inbox of 'Local Folders.' Not the new email acct. How do I direct all emails to local folder?
All other email accts are associated with a Tag. I have set a Message Rule associating the new acct with a tag. (I have a Tag column in 'Local Folders' that displays the tag name.) The Tag for received email for the new acct is blank. What am I doing wrong?

Until the experts show-up..... in my EPIM Gmail acct module I have an -- All Mail Folder -- and ONLY IT has Rt Clk / Create Rule for Folder.
In - Select Conditions for Messages - it has a drop-dn choice of -- Mail Account -- and a far Rt drop-dn box showing all 3 of my Mail Accts in EPIM.
- Move Message To - box below that offers all the Mail Accounts Folders members.
Do you have similar in your Local Folder & I wonder IF THAT is a solution path?

Local Folders is for POP3 type of mail accounts. So please add a new account as POP3 and don't forget to enable the "Use Local Folders" option on the last step of the wizard.

POP3 worked perfectly. Thanks.
Maybe off-topic for this thread, but I have set a Rule for this email acct. 'If incoming email = AbeLincoln@president.com, set tag to President.'
Works too well. Incoming email is tagged 'President, but also 'NoJunk.' How do I get rid of NoJunk?

I've searched EPIM HELP and googled "nonjunk." No hits. What is "nonjunk" and how do I remove this from "Tags?"

Found it. Right-clicked on 'Nonjunk' - delete
Should have been easy, but should be in HELP

The "Nonjunk" tag is likely coming from the mail server, although once deleted it shouldn't come back.
