Hello David, I had another idea. Replace the granularity integer by a string of 4 characters allowing to have something like 1.YSQM saying ok I want my archives to be organized with (Y)yearly,(S) semi annually, (Q) quaterly, (M) monthly folders 2.YM saying ok I want my archives to be organized with yearly, monthly folders etc... Do you think it is a valid idea. I think it will bring great flexibility on the archive feature of TB Kind Regards
Christophe, if you do this as an extension, you can try out whatever ideas you like. You could experiment with using nsIMsgIncomingServer's get/set CharValue method to set a string property describing the archive structure, and your extension could read that string property and implement the archive granularity described by the string.
Severity: normal → S3
