Hey guys,

Must be some kind of a VO issue on my machine, as I followed all of your steps 
exactly from the F5 and sure enough the drafts mailbox was under the VO cursor 
the entire time. I also checked my settings per Tim's email and my navigation 
was properly set up per his suggestions. I am still getting an Apple menu to 
pop open when I push down on the trackpad over the drafts mailbox when trying 
to remove it from the favorites bar. I also tried using the VO command shift 
space bar but this jumps me in to the messages pane of the drafts folder, which 
is weird since I used that same command to remove the other mailbox 
successfully that I wanted out of favorites. So it is strange that the same 
command will not work a second time, but nothing ever shocks me when it comes 
to voiceover. So strange, and its not the end of the world if the drafts 
mailbox stays in the favorites, but obviously would be nice to get it out of 
there. 

And yes, Tim I had toggled VO off and on several times previous to your 
suggestion, as I usually find VO needs to reboot itself at least once a day for 
some reason some times.

Thanks again, and please do let me know if you think of anything else.
