Make Outlook 2007 start in IMAP Inbox

When you add an IMAP account to Outlook 2007, you add a second account next to Personal Folders.  While there is, unfortunately, no way to replace the Personal Folders with this IMAP account, you can configure Outlook to start in the IMAP account’s Inbox as opposed to the Personal Folders Inbox.  To do so, follow these simple steps:

* Click on the Tools menu, then choose Options.
* Click on the Other tab, then choose Advanced Options.
* Under General Settings, next to the “Startup in this folder” box, click Browse.
* In the “Select Folder” dialog box, select the IMAP Inbox folder.
* Click OK to close the Select Folder window, click OK to close the Advanced Options window,  then click OK to close the Options window.
