Advanced Settings

Configure additional settings in the Advanced Settings section.

User Interface

• Display number of mailbox matches: Have MsgFiler 4 show the number of mailboxes that match the current search string at the bottom of the MsgFiler 4 window.

• Display total number of filed messages: Want to see how many messages you've filed over the years of using MsgFiler 4? Turn this setting on and it will be shown at the bottom of the MsgFiler 4 window. The number of filed messages will also appear at the top of the Settings window.

• Automatically reload mailboxes: MsgFiler 4 will attempt to detect when new mailboxes have been added to Mail. When detected, it will automatically sync mailboxes from Mail to MsgFiler 4.

• Stay open after flagging and labeling: MsgFiler 4 will respect the setting to stay open after filing unless you toggle this setting. Doing so will prevent MsgFiler 4 from returning to Mail after performing an individual flag or labeling operation.

• Stay open after showing mailbox: Toggling this setting will keep focus on MsgFiler 4 after showing a mailbox in mail.

Window

• Align MsgFiler window to Mail: When invoked, MsgFiler 4 will attach its main window to the frontmost Mail window.

• Position: Select the position to attach the MsgFiler 4 window.
