Hi and thanks for the reply,

I tried to keep it simple because my implementation and use are very
basic. That can be deceiving, too, I guess.

Yes I do have two folder trees.  One for Runbox, which is the default,
and a second shown below that for gmail. When I poll for new mail Claws
checks each separately.  Runbox first and then Gmail.

All the folders and messages in my Claws accounts are duplicates of
what is on the servers.

I access both accounts directly; no message transfer between accounts or
forwarding.  

Thx

Reid
