Hi all, Which is better? I've always used filters to sort my mail into folders. I detest a convoluted Inbox. However, and mostly recently, I'm finding it painful to wait the amount of time it takes to filter all my mail when I open Evo. I get quite a large amount of mail so I don't know whether or not Evo is at fault with regards to the amount of time it takes. Nonetheless, I've been wondering lately if it would be more beneficial to migrate to search folders instead...
- Would it be any faster? - My understanding of how Search Folders work, Evo leaves all the mail in the Inbox...How well will Evo handle all that mail in a single folder(IMAP hosted in the cloud).I don't know how many msgs I keep(unless otherwise necessary, I usually keep about years worth) but I've got approx. 40 folders. If I were to guess, I'd say the average mail per folder would be ~300 or so. -I'd particularly like to hear from someone in a similar position (many folders with allot of mail) that has crossed over. -Also, I've always wondered if there wold be a possible way to implement filtration(whichever method) server-side...Something along the line of SIEVE - My understanding of which is > /dev/null. This may be subject for another discussion. I'm just thinking if I'm going to rebuild the ~100 or so filters it might be due time to implement something more scalable long-term wise. I'm also getting a bit frustrated with the shear amount of msg filters I have. Mostly the managing of. I've filed a bug report(633813) here regarding the lack of a search tool to facilitate the management for those like me who have many filters. --just in case I don't move away from them in the end. Any insight/opinions are welcome. Cheers, Phil
