Hi,
If 150 folders is many or not I am not the one to comment.
That´s how my e-mail world looks like;)
When I used POP I hade rules that moved the e-mails to a folder.
In that case, the e-mail was not seen in any other folder.
That´s the same ”function” I now want to achieve.

You mention Submailboxes feature.
I tried to attach a pdf (215k) to show how my structure looks like, but 
the mail-list didn´t accept a picture that size.
Otherwise maybe it would have been easier to understand if I can use 
Submailboxes or not.

Mvh Mats
