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.
Right click Local Folders and select New Folder and it my
become clear(er).
Actually:
switch to three pane mode (makes this easy as falling off log.
click on inbox for desired email address.
then choose File menu > New > Folder. Now a window opens put in title.
click on button and choose sub folder the mouse to desired email address.
Next open a sample email, click on email address and hold (use from: ).
choose create Filter.
give filter a title and I use rather than same as , contains... (it
second choice or middle choice). Which means anything contained in the
email address I usually everything to left of the @ I remove. Then
select the new folder created. click okay then a new window comes up
click on run filter. Now if item sudden disappears and show up in new
folder your all set. close the filter window.
I do this all the time. I expect, I have a 100 sub folders. Not every
folder has a message every day. but once in a while at least one
message show up in all of them.
