That seems obvious, and is usually how it's implemented. The default is usually not to ask, which is probably why you haven't noticed it elsewhere. > > > 2.

These days it's almost irrelevant, since most apps have basic filter functionality that allows you to funnel messages anywhere you want, but still... Thunderbird is the first app I've used that allows total, flexible control both of that and multiple users with completely separate profiles on the same machine.
