I have many (50+) folders in my email to hold messages from different organizations and individuals I correspond with. I copy almost all of my incoming emails to these folders to archive my mail by sender.

In certain cases I would also like to put copies of emails I send into the same folder that the incoming mail goes into so I have a complete record of correspondence to that person or group. I have nor been able to figure out how I can do that automatically when I send an email.

The only way I can think of is to manually run a message filter on the Sent folder, but I have a hard time remembering to do that.

Any tip you have woukd be helpful - even if it's one that makes me feel stupid for not thinking of it myself.

Hi guys,

I was hoping there might be a feature or add-on that will allow me to automatically print an email after I send it. For the purpose of creating a paper trail we have to print out at least the 1st page of all emails sent to our clients. Love using Thunderbird and would like to keep using it. I know there is a feature in Outlook. Hope you guys have one too :)

I have been able to install keyconfig, but I can't find the code for simple things like: forward-char backward-char move-beggining-of-line move_end-of-line and other emacs-like commands. The page http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyconfig_extension:_Thunderbird has a long list of command I can shortcut, but none of the simple ones I need to navigate the composition window, in emacs-like style.

I can't seem to figure out how to make this change in thunderbird: When exchanging emails with a single person, back and forth, each new reply is show in my inbox as an entirely new message. Only when I click on the "new message" do I see the previous conversation. Is there a way to keep replies from taking up a new spot in the inbox? I'm visualizing the way it works on gmail, where the space in the inbox remains the same, but a new message will be alerted by a number in parentheses.

It's driving me nuts.

Thanks!
