They appear in the PFC directly under Incoming/Saved mail. I saved these from my iinbox directly to the appropriate folder in the PFC. It is a mystery as to how they ended up outside the folders. Are you saying that deleting mail from the inbox would also delete it in the PFC if it happens to be outside a folder? Also, please comment on my questions regarding restoring my PFC. Thanks, Sara
