Because it requires a paradigm shift in the whole program and is not that
little.

I answer your questions, you just choose to ignore them.

Sending to the right account in the first place requires neither filters
nor moving the message. That is the problem between chair and keyboard.

So do I, what's your point? I don't restrict how I get mail based on
where I am physically. I get both accounts in both locations. Clearly you do
as well since I doubt that you would have separate accounts where one could
send to the "work" account when you're at home and you'd not get it until days
later when you get into the "office."
That means, SIR, that you can direct them to send mail TO THE PROPER
ACCOUNT and you would get it REGARDLESS OF YOUR LOCATION.
Problem is between chair and keyboard, FIX IT THERE.

You prefer to use. As I said, however, that I doubt that you would leave
mail on your "work" account until you got to "work". That invalidates the
rest of your dubious argument.

I have read it, I do understand it. Common sense. Send the mail to the
right account. If you must, merge it elsewhere. DO NOT FORCE THE MERGING ON
ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO USE THE SOFTWARE BASED ON YOUR OWN SELF-CREATED
PROBLEMS.
