Chris, you guessed correctly.  I like the folder, myself.  I have my Eudora
configured not to send immediately, but I send them all in a bunch.  I use
that folder when I need to redirect a post that has bounced or add
something to a post before sending.  If you don't like the posts in the
folder, periodically, you can go to the folder, hit control-a to select
all, hit your delete key and they will go to the trash.  I empty mine into
another folder.  I know I'm a pack rat.  I save all of my trash posts to
storage boxes.  Also, you do not want your in, out and trash boxes to
accumulate posts.
