Alternatively, just create a virtual folder that picks up both the list folder and your replies to the list (from your Sent folder). I do this and it works fine with no moving of messages required. The only downsides are: 1) You visit the virtual folder instead of the real one, and virtual folders have their own place in the folder list. 2) It's OK to do this for a few cases, but doing it for every correspondent is impractical. IIRC Kmail allows this with no extra work. A nice enhancement would be to allow virtual folders to shadow real ones, i.e. the display would show the virtual folder instead of the real one. Needs some thinking about though. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
