NOTES

This is a setting you may turn on. Right click on the inbox for the account and choose Mailbox Behaviors. From there, you can uncheck the box to show notes in the Inbox. From there, they should only be visible in the Reminders section for you. Enjoy!

Go to email's preferences and select the Accounts tab. The first option down should be show notes in inbox. Uncheck it.

dwb answered your question, supplying you with a complete solution. You acknowledge as much and then mark dwb's post as "helpful." Why not mark dwb's post as "solved," which helps users identify solutions that much faster as well as giving dwb deserved recognition?

Interestingly, if you right click the inbox, select “Get Account Info”, and uncheck the “Show notes in Inbox”, it works temporarily. That is, when you close Apple Mail, it doesn't save the unchecked option.

Your method (Mail » Preferences » Accounts » Mailbox Behaviours » Show notes in Inbox) works perfectly, because when I close the preferences (or change a tab) you are approached with a message offering to save the settings.

Confirmed exactly. Changing the "Show notes" setting via Prefs menu item works even after quitting. The other method resets after each relaunch. Thanks!

For Notes in Mail Inbox, go to Mail Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors & then unclick "Show notes in Inbox." You now should only get Notes in your Notes folder and not the Inbox. ; )

Hi

I too had Notes showing up in my In-Box and I too went straight to the Preferences and turned off the Show Notes in In-Box. Except they were still there after I switched it off, I even tried quitting mail and restarting but the notes refused to disappear.

Then I read James's post and did the right click thing and one of my mail boxes still had the Show Notes selected!

So many thanks for that nugget of information James it solved my problem, many thanks.

Thank you. I had the same problem after upgrading today. Thank you.

thanks so much for the responses. this was bothering me too. i actually called iphone support and got a woman who didn't know that the notes synced with the computer at all!! this was not confidence inspiring.
anyway, thanks for the clear explanations...problem solved.
