So you had a folder that held all your unread email, and then as soon as you read it, it automatically left that folder and went somewhere else.

I can tell you how to change where new email is delivered in O2K3, Tools, Email Accounts, Next, Deliver new email to following location...

I have never seen where it would automatically move email from that folder to somewhere else - a rule maybe but none I am familiar with.

As indicated, we would need to know what mail client you are using.
