I went back to Outlook to change some files, but they didn't change in TBird. How do I update w/o making the same changes in TBird?
I've been using TBird for a month to test it out for our company. Late Friday, I then went back to my Outlook account and changed some files--moved some files into another existing folder and then deleted the old folder. When I went back to TBird after the weekend, I see that the changes I made to Outlook are not reflected in my TBird folders. Will this eventually happen, or is there something I need to do? Or will it never happen and will I have to make those same changes in TBird?

That depends on your account type (POP vs. IMAP), but you didn't provide that information.
Sorry--IMAP
With IMAP any changes made on one client should be propagated to all other clients. Can you post your Troubleshooting Information? Help (Alt-H) - Troubleshooting Information
