Somehow ... maybe I didn't make clearly enough, what I mean, so
I'll give it another try:

There used to be a time, when I thought giving each folder a
simple set of columns which meets the needs of the folder would
be a good idea.

Today I have in general three types of folders:

- mailbox folders (subject first, sorted by subject)
- personal folders (sender first, sorted by sender)
- customer folders (subject first, sorted by creation date)

Now I'm facing the following problem:

Setting all accounts do "use default" would disable me to have
the three types of sorting, especially the mailbox and customer
folders collide.

By time I learned to utilize the different columns, but - what a
shame - I changed the individual settings of so many folders,
that it would be a harsh job to revert every folder manually.

Thus I wondered, whether there might be a simple trick - as a
first step back to proper column setting - to give every folder a
predefined column setting *without* using the "use default"
option ... I'm also certainly pleased with any idea which might
be useful to solve my problem ...

Cheers,

Vince
