Move from INBOX to All Docs w/o Folder

I had a problem and was told to replace the design of a mail template to something other than a mail template. I used the LOG template, but moved the INBOX to a folder prior to beginning the template replacement.

However, when I replaced the design back to the mail tempalte, many (1,500) msgs that were formally in folders are now located in those folders AND in the INBOX. I’d like to get those msgs removed from the INBOX but keep them in the folder.

If I delete the msg from the INBOX, its removed from the folder as well. Is it possible to just re-move those to the All Docs folder or something. It’ll take a month to go through them and “Discover Folders” for every msg and re-move it to the original location.

Thank you in advance!

Subject: Just remove them from ($inbox)

Cretae a Formula agent:

@Command( [RemoveFromFolder] )

Then select all those messages in the inbox and run the agent. I think it should work.

Actions - Folder - Remove From Folder

Scott - definitely do not DELETE from inbox. This will move the mail message to Trash (which is purged on a schedule set in your Preferences). Use “Remove from Folder” instead.

I can’t believe I didn’t think about @Command( [RemoveFromFolder] )

Thank you very much for the quick help! It fixed things right up!
