Mozilla Thunderbird.

I just set up Mozilla Thunderbird (in 'LinuxMint 13') to use my yahoo message sender/receiver as my email.
I set it up to keep all messages in yahoo. NOT in my computer.

In yahoo.com.au I created a mass of folders to store incoming files to.
I can't find the 'send to folder' icon in Thunderbird.
The folders are on view and accessable, but, I can't see how to send a file from my inbox to one of my folders.
To do it I have to bypass Thunderbird and go into yaho via Firefox.

Is it possible to do it from Thunderbird?

I haven't used Thunderbird in a while, but if I recall correctly you should be able to click-and-drag an email to the desired folder. Additionally, you can create a mail rule to always send mail that matches certain criteria (such as from, to, subject contains, etc) to specific folders automatically.

In the language of today's youngesters *************U-Beaudie-It-Works*******************

Drag-and-drop is much simpler than Select-Send to-Select-Enter.

Thankyou Kage.
