I never looked before but same here.

 I can only fill that chat folder by selecting a message to
 Watch Replies in that folder (or by some other methods I don't
 know about).

Watch Replies in appears to do nothing here.

 In a normal VF however I always get displayed the messages that match
 the filter settings in the filter tab of the folder's properties. I
 couldn't make a normal VF display only the Watch Replies in
 messages.

Perhaps you could filter on something in the headers? For example,
subject, references...

 Maybe you can explain the secrets ;-) ?

Can't really help with Chat Folders but hope I have been of some
assistance with your original question regarding Watched By.

Hello MFPA,

 Any virtual folder watches other folders (and displays messages
 in those folders that match the filter you have set for the
 virtual folder).

I can't follow you completely on that point: the chat folder I created

Thanks for clarifying. When you click on Specials/Watch Replies
In/New Watch Replies Folder, the Dialogue box comes up with the
name Chat folder.

Since I had never taken any interest in the Watch Replies function
until I decided to respond to this thread, and I don't know a thing
about chat either, I obviously made a wrong assumption.

I really did look in all _places_ I knew of. And actually, I might use
it if it's functional for me. Afterall, some programmer made up the
code to include it so I can figure that somewhere, someone, thought it
was a great utility for us to use.

Whatever the heck though that it is escapes us at the moment.

It all got explained on the TBBETA list. It's about filtering certain
incoming mail to a virtual (chat) folder.

Click on Specials in your View Folder while you have a message in
focus, and look down the menu until you see Watch Replies In. Select
it, and to the side you'll see a choice, New Watch Replies Folder.
If you click on that, you will get a dialogue to create a new chat
folder.

After that, I'm lost. There's a way through color groups, I think, to
associate certain incoming mails with the new chat folder.

People with a lot of business correspondence seem to find it useful.

Somebody will turn up here and tell you how to use it, eventually. :)

Indeed. thanks. It does actually seem like something I will fiddle
around with. Like many, I am on numerous lists of varying genre.
Sometimes I know I replied to something and am wondering if there will
be a continuing thread. Thus, a need for me to interact and either
learn more or explain more.

So, maybe this will flag those and put them where I can read them
.sigh Or I can muck it all up and nearly every email I get will
inexplicably be filtered to the trash.

Well, I clicked on Create A New Chat Folder, and it actually put one
as a subfolder to Sent mail.

And, since I used the Specials menu from your message, it moved a copy
of your message into it.

Evidently, since I didn't select a name for the new folder, it put the
default name of TBUDL Virtual Folder.

Now, Virtual Folders can be a bit tricky. What you do to the mail in a
Virtual Folder happens also to the mail in the Real folder.

Keep that in mind. If you delete it in the Virtual folder, it will
also be deleted from the Real folder.

 So, maybe this will flag those and put them where I can read them
 ...

I believe that it will.

 .sigh Or I can muck it all up and nearly every email I get will
 inexplicably be filtered to the trash.

Oh, I really don't think so!

I've never used Virtual Folders, except the Mail Ticker Virtual
Folder.

But a lot of people swear by them.

You can also make a Watch Replies In folder from the Specials menu
on The Bat!'s main window.

Happy playtime to you! :)

Yes, it is a useful little thingy. So, as you said, will have fun

based on seeing your reply wind up virtually visible, e, watched
