Hey RicecarMark!


Good question.....


Can you say if this is happening for multiple accounts, or just one account?


Likewise, are these mailboxes under the “On My Mac” local section, or under a particular account section?


Also, were there any changes made from when it was working to when it started to do this? And finally, if these extra mailboxes appear after doing anything in particular?


Appreciate it, those answers may help!
