But first:
Do not confuse "Local directory" with "Local Folders". "Local Folders"
is a default sub-directory that is created whether you want it or not.
I never use it. It is not practical if you get more that three messages
a week.
Each mail account has a sub-directory for it's mail tree. Give the
sub-directories names that are meaningful to you. I have a tree on a
data partition. Give the top of the tree a name that covers all the
accounts below it - perhaps "SMMail". That is a neutral location, that
is accessable to all apps, and easy to copy to another computer or
backup location - and backup is just that: copy the tree.
After you have created a mail tree, with a sub-directory for each mail
account, and have copied the mail files from each location, go to the
"browse" I listed above, and show SM where each account is to store it's
files.
BTW, each "folder" in SM mail is a file. And where there are folders in
folders, the higher folders are sub-directories.
