Hello JD! 'Solved the problem' - just great! My 2007 Outlook does indeed
have the 'favourite folders' option so don't know why yours was missing. My
annoyance is that these 'favourites' are duplicated below under 'mail
folders' - I WANT TO LOSE the 'favourietes' which is just so much clutter.

If there is any folder you don't want to see in "Favorites", right-click it
and choose "Remove from Favorites Folder". Alternatively, just use the
"Folder List" view of the Nav Pane and there won't even be a "Favorites"
section.

I'd also like to lose Junk e-mail, RSS Feeds and other garbage folders. Can
you help me!

You cannot delete or hide any of the default folders Outlook creates when it
starts.
