All inbound e-mails are going directly to "TRASH" how do I fix this? I also have has thousands of inbound e-mails from "MAIL DELIVERY FAILED" involving people to whom I have never attempted to send an e-mail. Whats the cure? I have to use Time Warner as an internet connection and there is a duplicate of about half of what I'm getting in inbound traffic on Thunderbird.

The inbound is Backscatter see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_%28email%29

The trash issue is most likely the SPAM tool that comes with your anti virus program. Try disabling the tool in the anti virus suite and see how you get on.
