Being the most un-organized person, I would like to know if any of you who use IMAP for mail and how you organize your folders. I have process mail setup and it filters spam and also moves messages from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to a folder called in-l-informant. Then when I use an imap mail program like eudora, all new mail from informant is in in-l-informant (which stands for "in mail" L for list "informant list". Also note that eudora has an unread/read field which indicates if the message is read or unread. It does not show the message fields in bold for new mail like Outlook. This is confusing because you have to take an extra moment to look at the colored dot to see if it's new mail or not. Whereas is it was bold you know immediately that it was new mail. It does have a labels features, but I think you have to setup a filter to insert the proper label. Actually, I do not know what the label feature in eudora is for... I first though of just leaving the informant mail in this box, but now it's hard to sort this out with so many messages. Would it be better to create sub folders to put mail in separate mailboxes than having a long list of mailboxes? Also note that Eudora and Outlook show the same In/Out/Trash folders (which I never use) as if you were using pop3 above your IMAP folders. How do you handle these unused local folders? To give me some ideas, how do you manage your folders and messages using imap?
