  <title>Mail folder locations</title>

<p>You can set a different place where to store messages in your <gui>Draft</gui> folder and <gui>Sent</gui> folder in the <gui>Defaults</gui> section of the mail account editor (<guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Mail Accounts</gui><gui style="button">Edit</gui><gui>Defaults</gui></guiseq>).</p>
<p>You can define an <gui>Archive Folder</gui> for this account to move older messages there. This requires to first set a fallback folder under <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Mail Preferences</gui><gui>General</gui><gui>Archive Mail</gui></guiseq>. Selecting <guiseq><gui>Message</gui><gui>Archive</gui></guiseq> in the main window moves the selected message to the specified folder.</p>
<p>For remote account types (accounts such as IMAP) you can also use folders on the mail server for Junk and Trash by selecting the corresponding <gui>Use a Real Folder</gui> option. In this case, <app>Evolution</app>'s local <link xref="mail-search-folders">virtual folders</link> will not be used.</p>
