Bug Description

Default imap folders (sent, drafts, trash) are sorted alphabetically in the list of folders. I organized my mails in 38 folders and it's really difficult to find sent messages, drafts or trash. Why don't do like Outlook and Thunderbird and put default folders on top of the list?

Hello Patrizio,
Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Evolution.

You made this bug report in 2012 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Evolution since then.

Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket?
Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once):
apport-collect 912262

and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Evolution better.

Hi Patizio, I found many duplicate bugs submitted on this idea.

In May 2017, the Gnome bug team re-opened a ticket at the Gnome Bugzilla bug tracker website that covers this topic. Your idea is a great one and a lot of people would like to see this fixed. The ticket number at the gnome website is:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202257

I will link your bug report to the gnome one, to allow the Ubuntu bug team to keep informed and to make sure you get automatic updates on any changes at the gnome bug site. I will also change the status to Confirmed.
Hopefully, they will add that feature soon.
Have a great day
:)
G
