This suggestion has been around for a while. See, for example, http://www.mail-archive.com/evolution-list@gnome.org/msg04095.html (from August 2006). I thought I had added this to the bugzilla features-requested list, but I can't find it there. What I was asking for then is pretty much the same as, or a subset of, what Anderson describes: I would like the default place where an outgoing Reply is filed would be the same folder where the message being replied to is filed. I guess this would require either holding the reply for filing at the same time as the incoming is filed (usually after the reply is sent), or else using a drop-down to select where both will be filed while still writing the reply, or thirdly, looking in the user's contact list to see where mail from a given correspondent should be filed and requesting a folder selection only if not found there.
