My team (under my callsign N8SK) recently "activated" the fort at St. Augustine, FL (MN14) for the ARRL National Parks on the Air (NPOTA) special event. A lot of the QSOs from this activation got submitted to eQSL BEFORE I created a new "attached account" N8SK/mn14 (NPOTA MN14) under my primary account N8SK (n8sk@TVhome).
How can I move the NPOTA entries in my InBox under my primary account to this newly created attached account?

You can't move them. What you need to do is delete them from the outbox of the account they don't belong to, then upload the log to the proper account.

You can do a bulk delete based on date range.

Go to your outbox and bring up the Filters Dialogue. You do that by pressing on any of the 'Entries' links at the right side of the page, doesn't matter which.
At the bottom of the Filters Dialogue page you will see a link: 'Delete a Group of Log Entries'. Click that link and it will ask you for the QSO date range you need to delete.

Sorry, apparently I wasn't clear enough in my original posting (or else I don't understand your reply). The entries that need to move are NOT mine. They are the entries from the people that contacted me during the activation of the National Park Service's site. These entries are in my INBOX under my primary account on eQSL.cc; they should be in my attached account that I recently created for this activation of a NPS site (#MN14).

So, I guess I could delete all such entries in my InBox under my primary account and then ask the people to resend them. Hopefully, somehow eQSL would recognize that they should go to my attached account (nickname "N8SK MN14").

But somehow, I still don't believe this will fix the problem. I think the primary account would need to be changed somehow to say don't accept QSOs dated on 11/9/2016 (the date we activated the NPS site). Then, if the attached account was setup properly to only accept QSOs on that date, then maybe eQSL's programming would figure it out and correctly route the QSOs on 11/9/2016 into my InBox under the correct attached account.

Ok, I understand you now.

eQSLs coming into the system get sorted to the proper account by callsign and QSO date. So, if you made your QSOs using callsign N8SK, the incoming eQSLs will be addressed to callsign N8SK.

So, if the above is true (you signed your QSOs using callsign N8SK) they will end up in an account with callsign N8SK.

Why did you want a different account for this, did you want to have a special eQSL card design? That is possible, but at this point (because you have already made the contacts) we would need to assist.
