I submitted this already once, but for having one request/post, I'm resubmitting.

This is actually more about the filtering of mails ... but I can only define
one component... I filter incoming emails on the handy rule "sender/cc is in
personal address book". Really handy and dynamic, but not enough :). Why? In my
addressbook, I made subfolders in my peronal folder: friends, family, ... It
would be great if I could create a filter that can also choose a subfolder of my
addressbook instead of only the toplevel ones ...anyway I tried it for
subfolders of my personal folder an they didn't show up as a possibility in the
filter-dialog, only personal folder and the other 2 folders(toplevel) I have.

Thanks,

Brabants Michel
