Using 38.3.0 for Mac. How to create new local file(s), to store sent and received messages on my computer
I want to store my sent and received emails on my computer rather than the server. I tried right clicking on local folders to create a new folder, but this option didn't appear.

To store received mail on your computer, one normally sets up the account as POP type, instead of IMAP. To save sent messages locally, open Tools(or AppMenu icon/Options)/Account Settings, select the account in the left pane, then Copies & Folders, check 'Place a copy in' and select "Sent" folder on (choose the POP account name) or 'Other' and select Local Folders/Sent (or another subfolder).
Right-clicking Local Folders displays 'New Folder' here (Windows); do you see 'New/Folder...' under the File menu?
