In Evolution, I can have a threaded view of my inbox, and a Vfolder (ie a view) of the same mailbox, which just displays unread messages sorted by their "received" date.

kmail Posted Jun 30, 2004 8:27 UTC (Wed) by ekj (guest, #1524) [Link] That's nice. Luckily kmail can do the very same thing. Only it doesn't call the things "vfolders" but instead searches.When you perform any search, you can give that search a name, and it'll work just like a vfolder. Making a search that, for example, shows all messages with status "New" in ascending order by arrival is trivial. The feature is underadvertised though.
kmail Posted Jun 30, 2004 18:37 UTC (Wed) by captrb (subscriber, #2291) [Link] That sounds like a great feature. If Kmail gains the ability to automatically update the saved searches, it will have a similar feature. I've tried Evolution a few times over the years, to see if it offered features that were compelling enough for me to switch. Frankly, the unreliability of the application was too great to consider using it. It has been awhile since I tried, back when I loaded Redhat 9 for kicks and giggles, so maybe it is worth another look in the next few months.
