Hello Ming-Li, Sorry I haven't answered your questions sooner but
I was considering your questions carefully.
In a post time stamped re: "duplicating messages" you wrote:
Ming-Li> Ok, I assume you use this one to move those msgs you've replied to
Ming-Li> trash, right? (Why don't you do it with a auto replied msgs filter?)
Well it depends. Only msgs that remain in my InBox (that are not
filtered to a subject folder) that are replied to, are moved to
trash. In the TB! folder for example, this would not be so. I don't
really use auto reply & only filter for msgs that I am replying to
manually as I am doing with this one.

Ming-Li> Let me requote your original post:
If I've left something out I can assure you it was out of
ignorance, rather than anything else for it would be foolish of me
to be asking for help without providing the facts as best I know
them to be. How else would a suggested solution apply if there were
other considerations that weren't included in the picture? [moot]

Since I began this thread, I started to make some changes to
simplify my set up but, if my memory serves me here, I believe I
had created a "read" filter which essentially moved any msg that
was not flagged or nor parked (but was read) to trash.
Ming-Li> How are those "moved" to trash? (You said by the "keep for xx days"
Ming-Li> setting, but that doesn't make sense.)
Yes it seems that I assumed that msgs that were kept past the time
set in the folder properties would be sent to trash (rather than
wiped) & that the final wipe would be from the trash folder (after
the set time frame).
>> This works fine but I've noticed that a 2nd copy of msgs that

Ming-Li> Does this happen to *all* msgs marked to answer? Are those 2nd
Ming-Li> copies (in trash folder) have the same "answer this one" color?
Yes
Ming-Li> When would they show up in the trash folder? (Right after you
Ming-Li> use the hotkey to color code those msgs in the Inbox?) Are
Ming-Li> those msgs marked to answer parked?
Yes, there were parked msgs in the trash.
I hope this helps to clarify what I was trying to do with the
limited knowledge that I have. Anyway, I appreciate your taking the
time to try to help me.
