 Hello Ming-Li,

Ming-Li The reverse is much larder. Unless it's in the same folder as the
Ming-Li reply, TB practically doesn't know where to start, and would have to
Ming-Li search all folders every time.

 But it *would* find it and that's what we whish for.

Whilst seeing Ming-Li point of view I also see yours, too. I agree it
would be slow, but it would be a lot quicker than ME searching for it
especially if i had no idea where to start. My filing is a bit like
that... :-)

Exactly. It's so easy to miss a message when you're hunting for 1 in
100's 1000's...

2001-01-04 Thread Januk Aggarwal

Hello Graham,

On  Thu, 04 Jan 2001  at  13:55:29 GMT + (which was 5:55 AM
where I live) witnesses say Graham Foster typed:

 A different way of working which I do helps in this respect:-

 a) Create the last filter in the Outgoing mail which moves anything
 going from the Sent folder back to the INBOX folder

How about changing this to move it to the Trash and use a template to
add yourself as a BCC recipient. see below for more

 b) Change my filters which move incoming messages based on sender, so
 move them based on kludges. That way they get moved into the same
 specific folder if messages are sent or received to a particular
 person

With the change above, both your replies and incoming mail would get
moved.  You can also play with the "Local Delivery" option to reduce
the load on your mail server.  I've found the "Local Delivery" option
is great for basic filters, but you can have problems with certain
filter actions (Run program, auto-reply).

 c) Occasional manual re filtering of the Inbox ensures that messages
 are correctly moved to their respective folders (it would be nice to
 automate this)

This step can be largely eliminated.

 Now when you do conversation threading, as your sent messages are in
 the same folder as your received messages..the threads all hang
 together nicely.. and you tend not to use cntrl backspace at all!

I use this type of technique as well.  But what I usually do is just
create a copy of the incoming filter and drag it to the outgoing
filter set.  The BCC method is probably better when simplifying
filtering between multiple accounts.
