This is great. Thanks for the tip. For the fun of it, you can also
duplicate the behavior of the autofile log on outlook for windows,

must store a duplicate and not an alias of the original message,

an inferior behavior
Mail appears to store an alias, not a duplicate.
I actually stumbled over this accidentally. I wanted to setup a
filter rule that moved all emails from a particular client into a
folder. I used the Smart Mailbox without bothering to look up what it
did. At first glance, it did exactly what I wanted, it moved all the
mail from everywhere else that matched my criteria into the new Smart
Mailbox.
But then I realized that all the mail was still where it had started,
so I figured it must have duplicated everything, and I promptly
started deleting the originals. When I went back to the Smart
Mailbox, I found all my mail was now gone.
It was then that I figured I should read the directions and see what
exactly a Smart Mailbox was for, and that is when I realized it can
be used to duplicate Emailer's AutoFile Log.
