There are a couple of ways to do this, so choose your prefered method.
To create a new folder in a mail account:
- right click on mail account name in folder Pane
- select New Folder
or
- select mail account name in Folder Pane.
- File > New > Folder
or
- select mail account name in Folder Pane.
- Menu Icon > New Message > Folder
give folder a name and click on 'Create Folder' button.
To create a new sub folder:
- Select the folder in account
- File > New > Subfolder
or
- right click on folder
- select New Folder
You can also modify your selection:
If you did not have the correct mail account selected or folder
After selecting eg: file > New > Folder
the pop up window allows you select :
Create as subfolder of: select mail account name or folder.
To move emails from one folder to another folder:
Again there are a couple of different methods to choose.
- Right click on email
- select : Move to and select folder from list
or 'Drag and drop' method
- left click and hold down to grab email
- then drag email to left and hover over the folder
- release mouse to drop into folder.
You can move more than one email.
- highlight selected emails
- then right click on highlighted emails and use the 'Move to' method.
or
- left click and hold down on hightlighted emails and use drag and drop method.
How to hightlight emails in list: To highlight several emails as a block:
- click on first email
- hold down 'Shift' key and click on last email
To highlight a selection of emails that are no necessarily next to each other:
- Hold down 'Ctrl' key and use mouse to click to select emails.
To hightlight all emails in a folder:
- click on first email to get focus
- hold down 'Ctrl' key and press 'A'.
