IMAP Folder sync
« on: August 10, 2018, 07:44:45 pm »
I have an account setup using IMAP and for the life of me I cannot find a way to turn on all folders for sync.   I have around 75 folders and sub folders inside of those folders, the settings screen for "Folders" makes you select each one one at a time, very annoying.   Is there not a way to say just sync all folders from the server so that when I add new folders it will just pickup on them or do I really have to manually select which ones to sync?

I have the paid version and am in the US.

Well setting 75 folders for sync is not going to work out very well - the app will keep the device awake pretty much all the time.

I recommend setting "to sync" your most important ones - and accessing others "as needed" (and "refreshing" manually).

You'll still be able to move messages into those "as needed" folders (if you need that).

Could you maybe at least add an option to flag a single folder to sync and it would automatically add/remove the sub folder syncing to that folder?   Example: I have a "Projects" folder and have up to 10 subfolders under that that contains all my current jobs I am working on that I will keep adding and removing as I get and complete them, so I would set the "Projects" folder to sync and then all sub folders would sync and add/remove as I add/remove them.

Thanks

Well I could write it down as an idea - but not sure when / if that would happen.

We get a lot of suggestions - and try to prioritize them, based on a number of factors, one of them is how many users would benefit from a change.
