Hi,

I opened each sqlite3 file in the profile folder. I found the names of my two virtual folders (saved searches). But I could nowhere find the searches (e. g. mails with a specific tag) and other settings (in which folders to search) in the database. Where is this located?

Try opening the virtualfoders.dat file in a text editor.

THank you. With this informations I can workaround a bug (what you would call a missing feature).

And little hint for the moderators of that "forum": The mails notifing about new replies should contain a link to the original question. Currently there is no link. There are only unsubscribe and solved-yes-no links.

Can I use wildcards for the "scope" value in that file?

I am linking your other two questions here. I really think they are all a single question.
