Description vpapad 2001-09-20 00:34:02 UTC 
A useful wishlist feature to have, is the ability to quickly save a message
to a folder
based on the message's sender. In most text based mailers, like mutt/elm/pine 
when you press 's' on a message, the software offers to save the message on
a folder
named after the sender, so <s> <enter> in most cases does what you want.

<Right click><move to folder> and friends don't quite cut it, since you
have to wade through all your folders, to find the one you want to save the
message in.

feature bloat...

er, I mean request.
Comment 2 Gil Forcada 2007-03-17 00:40:31 UTC 
this bug should be closed since you can already do this
Comment 3 André Klapper 2012-06-16 11:14:25 UTC 
There's type-ahead if you use the keyboard in the "Select folder" dialog.

Gil: How is this fixed?

Comment 6 André Klapper 2021-05-19 11:31:19 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. 
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new enhancement request ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
