I only check my inbox for new mail. I don't use any sieves or other

I tried that and it seemed like Claws wasn't moving everything to the
local folders.. But, I think that was my mistake though.. I used the
MOVE command instead of COPY command.
ALL my filter rules use move, rarely copy.
So I wound up changing my filters to
IF: ALL MAIL to DOMAIN ACCOUNT
COPY TO >> ChristophersMail ( That's my local MH folders )
I switched all those years ago from Eudora to Thunderbird, still
POP. There was a nice utility to convert Eudora mail folders to
that used by Thunderbird. In fact just last year an old friend
was FINALLY getting of Eudora and asked if anyone knew how, so I
dug the program out of my archives for him.
Actually, if in the previous paragraph you said you don't have any
special folders on the mail server, but your emails are moved to the
local folders, that basically means you have your account set up as
IMAP and then a rule set up to copy or move the emails from the IMAP
server to LOCAL FOLDERS? Right?
Yes. I rather like having them local. Works nicely when I would be
flying and needed my mail. I suppose I could have kept everything both
on the server and local server copy, but then I only use the one
notebook. I rarely need to access mail from another system. Then I use
Roundcube on my server and only have inbox and sent.
Only corruptions I have had for years has been in the index. These
are easily rebuilt when they go bad.
Ohh... I've had TB lose my email 2 or 3 times... I don't trust TB...
But that was after a nuke and pave and restoring my email back in
/home.
So far has not happened and I try that it doesn't!
And been using TB since back before Fedora, when I ran Centos on my
notebook...
