553600 - Easy way to find sub folders

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 522768

(Thunderbird :: Search, defect)

Description

[Michelle]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: 3.0.3

I create all my folders & subfolders underneath Local Folders. When
I'm searching thru local folders to find the e-mail(s) I need, it tells me the
name of the folder, but not where that folder is.

It could be a subfolder 2-4 levels deep & with the amount of folders I have,
there is no way to find it. 

Finding a folder up near the top isn't as hard, but once I get past a certain
point the list is soooo long, I can't find where sub folders are. Especially
when some main folders are open & some are closed.

Being able to see the folders easily also helps with deleting old folders & cleaning things up.

Thank you


Michelle
