Is that something you created and you > move Inbox messages there via a filter rule? I assume you aren't familiar with Gmail. All mail goes into the 'All Mail' folder... even Sent mail (although a copy is put in the Sent folder). The google way of doing things. There is an Inbox and one can archive to All Mail but as you suggest I put in a filter (on gmail UI settings) to bypass it... just avoids having to manually archive mail. james _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
