IMAP 43 (45) Folders
jabba | Oct 26 2005
I set up my 43 folders as IMAP folders on my Linux server. Actually, 45 folders - 1TODO is just regular Todos, that age and yell as they get older. "weekend" is stuff to take care of on the weekend. Using some ideas I got from a post on the Google Group, I enhanced the script. I posted it at http://jalcorn.net/weblog/pages/tickler2.html Careful, some of it is very specific to my setup. 4 Comments

Yeah, but why not create a folder for every day you have something on (eg, tomorrow would be '2005-10-29') then have your script copy everything for tomorrow's date and earlier into your inbox? So it looks like Inbox Anyway, I'm not trying to put a downer on your system - I think the home-grown stuff like this is the stuff that people really use, and tends to contain some of the best ideas. I was just surprised by the literal inclusion of 43 digital folders, and wondered why you had chosen it. » POSTED IN:
