  4. Why are my emails still showing in my main folder instead of going into the sub folders so I don't have to see my read messages?

    Before today if I put an email into a sub folder it no longer showed in the main folder. That is what I want. Now all of a sudden my main folder is full of messages I have already read and sorted making it hard to get to the ones I still need to read and sort.

  5. automatically keeping sent mail relies in the same folder as received mail

    Can you provide an option to automatically keep mail replies in the same sub-folders as the original mail message I was replying to.
    I send hours every day having to sort the sent mail contents into the correct subfolders so that mail does not get lost.

  6. Unread is not needed. If yes, please provide a way to move to Inbox.

    There are messages in the folder "Unread". Please provide a way to move certain unread messages to the folder "Inbox" (too much to have to open both Inbox and Unread.) Thanks.

  7. Folder Renaming Updates Filters

    This has been suggested twice before, both posts being marked as REVIEWED:
    "Wish the Filters get updated after renaming of Folders" (rank 65)
    "Updating the folders reference in Filters" (rank 126)
    Does this mean that they are scheduled to be implemented?
    As remarked in the first post, you should add functionality to the "Rename Folder" code that iterates over all the filters & changes all references to the old folder name to the new folder name.
    Referencing the second post, if each folder has its own unique internal identifier, then provided the folder name can be accessed via this internal…

  8. Allow Resizing of folder column

    Why can't I add votes to resize the previous posts about allowing the re-sizing of the folder column? This is VERY annoying that you can't view your complete folder names.

  10. actually help with the emails that have gathered, no one can remember thousands of emails and your"all"feature only selects what is buffered

    we need to be able to actually clear the inbox not archive it. no individual can read that many and if someone needs to keep they can. your all feature only does what is loaded, no one has the time to go through thousands 100 or so at a time. this is not an idea but you dropping the ball. need to fix you jumped right on ads, FIX THIS

  19. expanding the folders window

    Expand column for folders - this has to be very easy to do technically to allow a user to expand it to whatever width is desired. This has to be easy and inexpensive to implement.
