I couldn’t see that as an option on 5673 so updated to the pre-release 5818, and then found it in ‘other’ where it probably was in 5673. Anyway happy to hear you sorted it out.

Re: [MlMt] Name submailboxes after flag color
Hi Nic,
the initial submailbox configuration was actually pretty simple. I just set
"Submailbox for each unique value of" to "Flags >> Color".
Now, digging again into MailMate's settings, I've actually found a solution to
my problem: In addition to "Flags >> Color", there's now also "Flags >>
Colorname" which does exactly what I want. I think the option wasn't there the
last time I looked, so maybe it got added in one of the prerelease versions
that I only very recently updated to.
Btw, the above solution did raise a tiny follow-up issue: The submailboxes were
sorted alphabetically by colorname which was not ideal for me. Though there
doesn't seem to be a way to manually reorder submailboxes, I was able to tackle
this by changing the Mailbox name format to ${#flags.#color}
${#flags.#colorname}.
Cheers
Stephan

Hi Stephan, How have you told MailMate to auto-create submailboxes by flag color? I can’t see a built-in option. I think this must be something to do with how flags are implemented.

[MlMt] Name submailboxes after flag color
Hi everyone, I have a smart mailbox in MailMate that collects all messages with flags. In addition, I’ve told MailMate to auto-create submailboxes by flag color. This works fine – however, the names of the submailboxes are not colors but apparantly a simple number code. For example, the mailbox with red flags is named "0", the one with blue flags is named "4" and so on. Is there a way to name the submailboxes after the actual flag colors? I can manually rename the submailboxes, but this always gets reset after a while. I tried playing around with the Mailbox name format under the Submailboxes tab, but tbh I don't understand how the syntax works.
