No -- when I send an email from my laptop or phone, I send a BCC to myself so that I retain an archived copy on my office computer. On emails I send from my office computer, I don't send myself an extra copy; I move emails from me from my "Sent" folder to my archived folders, which are organized by subject. That way they don't show me as a recipient I often need to locate an email sent to me from a particular business contact. If I could have all emails matching those criteria also sorted by date, it would make things even better -- but that doesn't seem possible, or at least easy. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
