Do you know how to write a feature request at Bugtracker's Wish List? If you wrote one and posted the URL here (probably you should cross-post to tbbeta, too) I would put a note to support it. Once or twice in the past I dumped an entire folder by moving its contents to Trash and then deleting the folder and emptying the Trash. But that was in an effort to straighten out a corrupted jumpy folder and I had already copied all the messages to the new folder I had set up to contain them. I keep my own archive here of absolutely everything that I download from the mailing lists, except the tbbeta automatic acknowledgments that my posts have been received. (Set that up long ago when I was worried they had not been, one time.) So, I don't need the feature. But I'd be willing to support it for your needs. -- Best regards, Mary :Trill: The Bat! 3.0.1 RC4 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
