Title: Filter flagged mails on an MS/live/hotmail/outlook account
Post by: oioioi3 on August 02, 2018, 11:14:51 am
Hi. IMAP accounts have a 'starred' folder where ONLY starred/flagged mails are stored. It's easy to sync this folder so it appears in AM. I want to achieve sth similar to this with my MS/live/hotmail/outlook account in AM. So ... MS/live/hotmail/outlook accounts have flags. But it is only when one browses the webmail version via browser and then filters according to 'flagged' that one can see those filtered. There is no separate folder (as in IMAP accounts).

In MS Outlook there's the TO-DO bar and under its tasks one can see (among other items) the MS account's flagged items.

So ... how can I achieve this in AM? To see/filter the flagged mails of my MS/live/hotmail/outlook account?

Gmail accounts do. Not all IMAP accounts.

It's a Gmail feature.

OK, thanks for the clarification. And as to the OP - could something similar be done with my live.com account where AM shows a folder or a way to filter out the flagged msgs?

Personally I just created a folder for "messages that need a follow-up" - set it as Archive folder in the app - and assigned a swipe gesture.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, but you're referring to something else. I'm asking for a synchronized way of flagging/starring an email in Outlook or live.com, which then reflects as flagged/starred in some folder or filter in AquaMail. And also the other way around - flagging/starring in Aqua and then that syncs and reflects as flagged/starred in Outlook and www.live.com. Is it possible to achieve this?

I already wrote above that this is a Gmail feature.
