I'm using POP3 (IMAP wants me to be connected to the internet when I 
read my mail. It also wanted to have the same messages in the Inbox 
folder as well as the All Mail folder. How silly. Anyway, I don't have 
an "All Mail" folder (probably because I'm not using IMAP).

I even double-checked my preferences and I do have the list set to mail 
me my own messages.
