3 years ago It's tricky and complicated. returning to the previous category is even more complicated. If you have the inbox in the category one approach to implement this would be to have an option in the advanced tab properties to "automatically open first category" (you know that a folder can have more than one category), something like this:
Another approach would be to have a default folder for each category, which means any folder could be jumped to when you select the category. IN any case even though probably useful to your workflow, it's probably a very very small number of users who would benefit from thsi. Why don't you select the category manually? If it is to save a single click, the second approach might be better. but it may also be super annoying for other users if they accidentally set it.
I'm using quickfolders to organize subfolders by email. I use the left folder pane sidebar to select the primary inbox, (which I've grouped together using menu/view/folders/unified), and put the subfolders for each inbox in the quickfolders toolbar.
I'd like an optional setting to link the inbox selected (or a way to customize other folders filling this role) to what tab category is displayed in the toolbar.
example: On default all categories are displayed. I select email-one's inbox in the sidebar. When selecting this folder, only the tab category linked to that folder is displayed in the quickfolder toolbar.
In my setup, it would be the associated subfolders of that inbox. I assume that this would be customizable.
If I deselect that folder by clicking a folder not linked to a tab category, the displayed tab category either returns to what it was before or stays as is. (I don't know which would be more useful).
