Interesting. However, my smart mailboxes are all under Mailboxes › Inbox and I don’t see a way to creae a new folder there. I don’t know where else I should/could put them and I don’t really want to break anything.

I see a folder called “Examples” under Mailboxes, so maybe there is a way to create another folder at the top level under Mailboxes, but, again, I don’t see how. (The “New IMAP Mailbox…” command is disabled in all these contexts.)

I *could* try moving my smart mailboxes to other places (in that “Examples” folder, for example, or in a folder under one of my Sources) to see what happens, but like I said, I don’t want to break anything and I’d rather get the proper advice before trying anything.

TIA

Pierre
