Your brother has good a taste :-)

Yes.

- Click with your right mouse button and one of your folders and click
properties.
- Check the 'use the account default column settings'
- Modify this folders columns and sorting rule.
- Each folder with the 'use the account default column settings'
checked will now have these settings. Changing one of them will change
it for all.

Proberly with regex. I have no knowledge of that. Someone?

Not officially, but you can try to copy the Account.srx file (located
in the root of the account) to another account. The only problem is
that when a folder in the other account is not available, the Bat
will set it to the default folder (inbox or sent). This makes only
sense when you don't have any other filters yet in an account. Close
the Bat when playing with files in the mailfolders (*all at you own
risk*).
Exporting to a text file is (not yet) possible. Hopefully Ritlabs will
change this in the future.
