Default MS Please help! Issue with creating mail folders

If this has previously been addressed, I apologize in advance as I could not find anything on it when I did a search.

I recently "upgraded" to Outlook 2010 and have an IMAP account, just as I did with Outlook 2003.

I receive emails from customers and potential customers from all over the US and I need to be able to file away those emails for future reference - preferably in a folder named for that person's company.

Approx 50% of the time now, when I try to create a folder for a new customer I get this error message:

"Cannot create the folder. The server responded: 'CREATE Mailbox already exists'". (see attached screen capture of the error message)


It's acting as if there is already a folder with the same name - yet there is not.

If any one from Microsoft monitors this forum and can help, it would sure be appreciated.

Thanks again!

Mike
