The nice thing about common folders is that you > can create whatever folder hierarchy is useful. I'm afraid we have different ways of working. For me, folders integrate beautifully into the hierarchy; if fact, they *are* the hierarchy. I wouldn't miss it. The only common folder I have is for messages that I am storing for no particular purpose. Usually "funnies" that I thought are worth keeping (hence the name of that common folder: "Keepers"). > However sender mail (new, reply, forward) needs to know what account > to work under. FOr a common folder, it cannot know. Of course not. Hence the name "common" folder. But maybe it would make sense for you to add the %Account macro to your templates - maybe on AB level, if you communicate with any given addressee only from one account. -- Cheers, Thomas.
