Relocating my trash messages

ericd · 21 Nov 2005, 09:38 AM

I need to move the messages in my trash folder if Runbox is going to delete them. I created a new folder but do not know how to get the old messages to it. Can you tell me how to do it. I think that the storage in Runbox is fantastic. I actually don't like this new idea about deletion of the messages. It isn't that I'm too lazy to delete them. Most of the messages in that folder are not trash. I delete the ones that are spam every day. I like being able to refer back to old emails. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

Just mark all the messages on a page in the Trash folder with the Check All box, then mark the destination folder in your Folder list to the left with the radio button, and then click Move messages below the folder list. Repeat as needed (you can increase the number of mails per page to up to 500, in your Trash folder, under Preferences).

And while I wouldn't recommend using Trash as an archive, you can set the upcoming option for this to never empty your Trash for you, after the one-time deletion.
