<p dir="auto">Rereading the “Organize” section of the MM manual [<a href="https://manual.mailmate-app.com/organize" style="color:#3983C4">https://manual.mailmate-app.com/organize</a>] just now, I noticed this sentence: “When handling a new message in the Inbox, the basic decision to make is whether it should be archived or trashed. The rest should be handled by smart mailboxes.” That may be an answer (possibly <em>the</em> answer) to my earlier question:</p>
<blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #777; color:#777; margin:0 0 5px; padding-left:5px">
<p dir="auto">Is the only option in MM to use tags to organize messages and move everything I want to save to the Archive folder?</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">But since that still strikes me as sub-optimal, I’m going to hold on to my hope that someone else will describe another approach. At this point, moving messages to the Gmail folders/labels under SOURCES is the only option I can see.</p>

<p dir="auto">P.S. I wrote previously that I couldn’t move messages from Inbox to another mailbox. I was trying to issue the “Move to Mailbox…” command with a message open in its own window, but that command is inactive in that instance. I subsequently realized that the command <em>is</em> available as long as I don’t open a message in its own window. That seems a bit odd, but I’ll take it. (Even then, however, I couldn’t move messages to the mailbox I created by duplicating the “Examples” folder and renaming the copy.)</p>
