Can you nest smart mailboxes in Mail.app? Or store them in a Folder? Ian  SignatureIan Robinson, Belfast, UK <http://www.canicula.com/wp/> >Can you nest smart mailboxes in Mail.app?

They need to update the Mail help files. It says in the Organising Smart Mailboxes entry: "As with regular mailboxes, you can ³nest² Smart Mailbox folders by creating new Smart Mailbox folders within existing Smart Mailbox folders." I couldn't get it to work. Ian SignatureIan Robinson, Belfast, UK <http://www.canicula.com/wp/> > Can you nest smart mailboxes in Mail.app?

Sub Sub Smart folder. Works for me, if this is what you are asking. Use the Mailbox option from the menubar to creat folders. then drag and drop them into each other and include mailboxes where needed.

Hmm. I don't seem to be able to get them to nest, they just reorder within the Smart Folders section of the sidebar. Leopard here.

Bingo. You have to have nothing selected in the Sidebar then the "New Smart Mailbox Folder..." menu item becomes available. This allows the creation of an enclosing folder for Smart mailboxes. Just drag your Smart Mailsboxes into it. Excellent. Ian SignatureIan Robinson, Belfast, UK <http://www.canicula.com/wp/> |
