Very usefull to see both incomming and outgoing emails from one, or more, email accounts.

Two Features would make it even better.

I use filters in one of my email acounts for a forum, to separate from All mail with a preset beginning part of the subject line, get moved to a dedicated folder, within that account folders. In order for my outgoing emails to that group, to be moved to to that same place, I have been, after sending a mail to that group, pressing the "Run Filters Now" option, or manually move them, or use a dedicated email address for that group.

It would be worth 10 points, if you added the feature to somehow use the message filter to send the filtered out so only the sent mail that i to that group gos to that folder. Maybe a simple option to run that accounts message filter on the sent folder everytime I send an email, so it figures out where to send a copy or the actual message to.. Or a more intense feature in the "Copies & Folders" section to have the option to run filters on folders, when sending.

Second feature request, is to add, in the "copies and folders" section, "saved copies" of all received emails to another place. This is useful, for email accounts, like AOL who now dump all you emails sent, or received, after a few weeks, unless you laboriously, one by one, copy them to a special "Saved on AOL" folder, on the internet. There is no option, in Thunderbird to make a copy of all emails received, automatically.

So this would be more a more advanced Beef Up of the "Copies and Folders" Options. That would be even greater.

Keep up the Good Work
