Oh, that's a shame. Never mind. Think I'll look at your suggestion of
using a special folder. For some the attention is other than replying
to the email, so I'll need to manually move them to the right folders
after actioning them. I might offer my humble suggestion as a possible
feature request. You never know. My grateful thanks for your replies.
