Hello all, My question today is, how can I get SM 2.21 go to my
sub-folders to collect mail on web based accounts? e.g. in yahoo I have
eight message filters which do not stay in the in-box, they go directly
to their respective folders at yahoo.com. What are the settings for
having sm check the filters to import the messages or is there a
setting
change at yahoo.com I need to make?

I assume you want to bring mail from Yahoo to SM ao that it resides on
your HDD.  If so, just get rid of the filters in Yahoo, create a Yahoo
account in SM, and let SM filter them.

Or else use IMAP, which reproduces locally the server's folder
structure. In fact, Yahoo does not give POP access for free accounts,
but it does give IMAP (although they claim it's "unsupported" for
desktop clients; they say it's "just for phones and tablets"). Although
I find their IMAP behaves slightly oddly.

In advising the OP to download their Yahoo messages and then do the
filtering in SeaMonkey, have you tried it??

I, sort of, recall reading somewhere here-abouts, that filters are not
working, for some reason, and, by-the-by, last night I set up two new
filters on my Usenet account but, tonight, they are not doing anything.


Daniel,

I think I was advised to filter within SM and not in Y, which I currently do. I also was filtering in Yahoo, which was not permitting me to gain access to already filtered messages, only those in the main folder.

Thank you...
