Saving a message to a folder you specify

You will find it useful to create additional folders for storing messages on particular subjects.

To save a message to a folder you specify:

  1. At the Folder Index screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the message you want to save or, at the Message Text screen as you view a message, press S (Save) to save a message.

    You are asked if you want to save it to the saved-messages folder or to another folder:

    SAVE to folder in <mail/[]> [saved-messages]:
    

  2. Type a foldername and press <Enter>.

    For example, to save a message to a folder named ``papers'' type the name and press <Enter>. If this is the first time you have named this folder, you see the message:

    Folder ``papers'' in <mail/[]> doesn't exist. Create?
    

  3. Press y or press <Enter> to create the folder.

    Once you have created the folder, or whenever you type the name of a folder that already exists, you see a message like this one:

    [Message # copied to ``papers'' in <mail/[]> and deleted]
