Re: Copy email to anther folder using pop3

POP3 does not have a concept of "folders". You will either need to save the mail locally or use another protocol, like IMAP, if your server supports that.

Thanks for the information. When saving the email locally, what I can think of is that, creating a folder with the date and email subject as the folder name, and inside the folder, are the email body and attachments. Is this a common way to save emails? Thanks a lot!	[reply]

When I did an export of Lotus Notes to files, that was the approach I used. I'm not aware of a good, monolithic way to store emails and a corresponding folder structure which can be read from more than one email client, unless you use your own IMAP server.	[reply]
