Sent Box in One Accout Shows Messages from All Accounts
I have two email accounts. Each shows an Inbox and Sent box in the mail panel. The Sent box in one account correctly shows mail sent from that account only. The Sent box in the other account shows mail sent from both accounts. How do I limit the mail the Sent box shows to just the one account?Click the view button on the mail panel toolbar and reset the mail panel to defaults.
Set the Mail Database Consistency Check Time to 0, save the change and restart Opera. Choose OK to perform the maintenance. The number will reset to a high number after the restart, so don't worry about that.
If it's still messed up, make sure you're using Opera 11.51 or newer.
If it still doesn't work, you might have hit a bug in a previous version where an upgrade to a newer version didn't fix it. In that case, you might have to start over.
But, just to rule out a contacts id issue, goto "Menu -> settings -> import and export -> export Opera contacts" to export your contacts to abook.adr. Then, close down Opera and delete contacts.adr in Opera's preferences folder. Then, import abook.adr. This problem won't help, but it's just something you can do to rule it out as a problem.
The only other thing you might do is check index.ini. You'll want to find the index for the sent view for the problem pop account. The sent view should have a parent id that matches the access point id for the account or the id for the view that you get when you right-click on the access point header for the account and choose "read". Might take some looking to find it. Anyway, if the parent id for that sent view isn't correct and it points to the id of the "All Messages/Sent" view for example, you'll need to fix it.
Besides that though, you'll have to start over.
As an alternative, goto "shift + F12 -> buttons -> mail" and drag the account selector drop-down to the mail panel toolbar. You can add a wrapper after the view button so the drop-down goes on the next line if you want. Then, just set the drop-down to the account you're working with at the time. Then, "All Messages/Sent" will only show messages just for that account. Then, you can click the view button on the mail panel toolbar and uncheck all the access points for your POP accounts as you won't need them anymore.
