New email accounts don't appear under Local Folders

I created two new email accounts (ex: info@newemail.com). I can sent from them just fine, but when I send TO them the emails are received in a separate set of folders under the name of that email address. How do I get those emails to appear in the Inbox under Local Folders instead of in the Inbox under info@newemail.com.

I've set its Copies & Folders to the same as my other email addresses where received emails do appear in the Inbox under Local Folders.

Are they IMAP or POP accounts?

IMAP accounts use server folders, not local folders. If you want messages from IMAP accounts to go to local folders, you will have to create filters.

I assume that you could also set up those accounts as POP accounts, but I do not know because I have not used a POP account in about 25 years.
