What is the point of parking messages if you park them all? To me the whole notion of parking a message is to make it impossible to delete. Why one should be able to delete a parked message by moving it flies in the face of the whole notion. I can't drive to the mall and have my car be parked at the same time. My messages used to get organized by filters, and be where I wanted them. Now with IMAP they get organized before they ever hit my machine. Once they are where I want them, if they are important enough, I might park them. But if I had 50,000 or so parked messages, parking wouldn't mean much any more. Put differently, if everything was 'parked' how would I recognize the messages which were important enough to park? -- Dwight A.
