Howdy folks, I''ve got a really straightforward question that I can''t seem to find an answer for in the wiki or the New Users Guide or Google, for that matter?is it normal behavior for a newly composed and then sent message to appear in inbox view, i.e. to be labled both ''inbox'' and ''sent''? Or do I have something misconfigured? Any help would be appreciated. Yours, Morgan chamill at wesleyan.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I wonder what people think--is it reassuring to see it in the inbox, or is it irritating? I think it might be better to auto-archive sent messages and to flash a message saying "Message sent!" or something instead. -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net>

Somebody (me) started a new thread, so it''s something I''m interested in (seeing replies to). The way I use sup I will only keep emails in the inbox if they have some kind of outstanding action (me to reply or someone else to reply), so getting sent emails in the inbox is purrfect. The only mails I always archive at once are mails I''ve forwarded to my gmail account so I can see its attachments in a browser. -- alge

To me, it fits more with the ''big stack of mail'' approach, although it''s definitely a grey area when you consider auto-archived sources.

William Morgan, 2009-12-19 21:14:> I think it might be better to auto-archive sent messages and to > flash a message saying "Message sent!" or something instead.I don''t. ;) One of the reasons I L-O-V-E sup is that it shows sent and drafts in inbox. If the default behavior changes at some point, I''m fine as long as I can configure (so that I don''t have to patch) my sup back to current behavior. -- Tero Tilus ## 050 3635 235 ## http://tero.tilus.net/

Morgan, if you are really bugged by this behavior, I suggest you make a feature request on the bug tracker http://masanjin.net/sup-bugs/. It would not be difficult to make this configurable per-user. The easiest solution would be to have SentLoader act more like a regular source and generate labels based on its #archived? attribute instead of hardcoding them. -- William <wmorgan-sup at masanjin.net>

But I wish forwarded emails would be part of the thread instead of a new one. I often just reply and change the to: field in order to get this behavior. If joining worked, that would also be fine.
