That is exactly what I do all the time, I read IMAP and save to Maildir. I think these are main settings on my side to save it as Maildir: set folder=/home/data1/protected/Maildir set mbox_type=Maildir # Save by email address set save_name=yes set save_address=yes The above makes sure that I save emails by the correspondent's email addres, if correspondent is per...@example.com then it gets saved in ~/Maildir/per...@example.com and then all conversations sent to per...@example.com and received from per...@example.com may be easily found in ~/Maildir/per...@example.com I have set one key to open all previous conversations related to the per...@example.com easily > First of all I like to save emails from external imap accounts to a > local maildir folder.

One by one or tagged emails, all that can be saved as explained above. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
