Just to add my 2 cents: the MH mail system also supported this (the header was Fcc: <filename> but changing it to <folder> would be obvious) and was extremely useful. One way to use it is to *not* keep copies of trivial outgoing mail, or keep some stuff locally and the rest on an IMAP server. However most other mailers don't have this functionality either as far as I can see. poc _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
