Sort emails to folders I create
I have done this many times in the past but due to a head injury I seem to have forgotten how I did it!
I just want to add a folder to my email so new emails for a particular subject all go into the folder with that subject's name. For example when I get emails from "Family Search" they all get sent to a folder in Thunderbird called, you guessed it! "Family Search"
Like I said I have done this and those ones work but I just am drawing a blank on the proper steps to set up a new one.

First, decide where you want the other folder. For example, if this is an IMAP account, do you want the folder online, or local? Next, once you define the folder, the next step is to click tools> message filters and create a filter to select the FROM and the MOVE TO options.
Thanks for the fast reply it at least got me looking some more and I stumbled on to where I needed to do it.
Not sure of the terminology but I clicked on the three parallel lines up to the right of the page and in the drop down box I clicked on "Tools" then "Message filters". This opened up the page where I could see all the filters I had created over the years. This jogged my memory enough to where I could recall the steps. Only problem is first time I had a space in my typing between Family and Search once I corrected that error it work like I had hoped.
Thanks again for the help offered.
I was thrilled to assist. :) You already knew the steps and just needed a reminder. :) Life is good.
