I was reading one of Daniel's responses in a earlier thread (titled "Re:
SM 2.04 - compacting folders at convenient times") where he stated the
following:
Does your wife have all her mail in a single folder or has she broken
the mail up into yearly folder for different mail, e.g. I store all my
past mail in folders under the Local Folders as 2009_Family,
2008_Family, 2009_Work, 2008_Work, etc., etc..
Are the instructions for how to establish such folders available on the
web? If I eventually establish such folders on my system, are they
accessible from within Mozilla (same at the Inbox) or are they opened
via some other reader?
I know that this question is below the elementary level for most people;
however, I don't know how to make this happen so I am asking the
question. I would appreciate gaining access to information on the
procedures for building such folders under the Local Folder heading.
Thanks for any help sent my way on this subject.

I now have sub-folders to my Inbox---I'm happy. I did what I should
have done at the beginning---looked under SeaMonkey Help and found the
answer. Here is what I saw:
Creating a Folder
To create a message folder, begin from the Mail window.
1. Open the File menu, choose New, and then Folder. You see the New
Folder dialog box.
2. Type the name of the folder.
3. Click the drop-down list and choose a folder location and click OK.
Your new folder appears in your Mail Folders list.
I followed the three steps and it worked. I ended up with an Inbox.sbd
folder under Inbox with a sub-folder under that named Frog. I next
added a message to this folder and that worked. I then clicked the
added message and it opened in a SeaMonkey Mail window. Here is how it
looked Windows Explorer:
Local Folders
Inbox
Inbox.sbd
Frog
I presume that any additional folders will find their way under
Inbox.sbd. In any event, I am now off to organizing my messages.
Thanks again for the responses.
