A> How do "common" folders differ from "virtual" ones? A common folder is a physical folder not belonging to any account that actually contains the messages.

When you get messages in a common folder, you either copy them or move them to that folder. When you move them the messages disappear immediately from the original inbox, even before you delete them from the common folder. If you copy them, no action on the copy in the common folder will have any influence on the original copy. And when you're replying to a message in a common folder, you're never sure that it'll be answered with the same account that did the receiving as all connections between the message and the original account are severed. The option 'delete from server when message is removed from trash' (when you're keeping mail on server) doesn't work any more as the message have been moved to a common folder. These disadvantages don't go for virtual folders, as virtual folders contain only links to a selection of messages matching your filter. -- Groetjes, Roelof Yawn: The only time some men get to open their mouths.
