 |
|
I see that mail-client/claws-mail-3.7.9-r1 defaults to the following mailbox directory structure;
/home/[user]/[mailbox_name]
can I configure it so that I can use the following mailbox directory structure?
/home/[user]/[directory_of_my_choosing]/[mailbox_name]
Thanks..

1 - close claws-mail.
2 - tweak the following value :
| Quote: |
$ head -n 3 ~/.claws-mail/folderlist.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<folderlist>
<folder type="mh" path="directory_of_my_choosing (relative path from ~)" sort="3" collapsed="1" name="mailbox_name">
|
3 - move the mailbox accordingly to your choice.
4 - fire up claws-mail. |

thanks netfab..
I was actually worried it was something documented somewhere and I simply couldn't find the appropriate hidden menu choice, no matter how long I searched/googled..
