Not so. There are two options for automation available: 1) Use the "General" Preferences to set a default folder for sent mail. 2) Use filters to move sent mail to an appropriate folder. Now it is true that one-off choices are manual but I've found that those happen rarely, if ever. Essentially all my outgoing mail is automatically moved to the appropriate folder and I can't recall a time when I couldn't classify my outgoing mail with a permanent filter. In case anybody thinks I've got a dead simple setup, I should tell you that I successfully use PowerMail to manage 28 folders, including 1 subfolder plus 4 or 5 accounts each with their own set of filters. Included in that is the administration of 2 mailing lists. While the above might be less than some, I would argue that it is more than most and nicely demonstrates the power of the application. -- Tim Lapin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
