Have you set the Archive folder in the account configuration - you just said you created one. You set it in Edit -> Preferences -> Mail Accounts -> (select account) -> Edit -> Defaults P. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Archive function
Thanks for the replies, What I did was just create an "archive" folder and then (after someone else replied) I then went into each individual account Edit>preferences>individual account>defaults where I set "Archive Folder" to "On this computer/Archive" where "Archive" is the folder I created on "On this computer". This machine has three accounts so I set it the same for all accounts. I thought that I had it except I don't. If I select a message the option to archive the select message (on the top bar) is still greyed out. I've had a good look over this but can't see what I'm missing. Any further insights welcomed.

Re: [Evolution] Archive function
Hi again everybody, I finally worked this out. I have to enable the 'general' archive function from edit>preferences and then 'mail preferences' at the bottom. It works following this. Sorry if this is what you were telling me but I misse it. Got it now. Thanks again for your help :) On Sun, 2019-03-03 at 08:27 +, Pete Biggs wrote: > > Can anybody tell me how to utilise the button on the top tool bar > > that > > says"Move selected messages to the archive folder for the > > account"?
