how do I setup separate folders in Evolution email client?


I am having a problems figureing out how to setup my Evolution email client to have seperate folders for each email account,
I have to accounts from gmail and 3 accounts from shaw , when I setup all of these email accounts in Evolution the combined the both the gmail email acounts into a single folder and also the shaw email accounts into another single folder, so now when I chek my email it is hard fr me to tell which shaw or which gmail account the mail is addressed to , if there where in seperate folders it would be allot easier.
thunderbird email client does this it seperates each email account to its own older , but in evolutin I cannot see how to set it up this way.

on a seperate problem is here spell checking in Firefox webbrowser ?

I don't use Evolution, so I can only suggest what I would do in your situation.

First, in your inbox, set up a folder for each mail address you want to bring in.

Then, set up filters, one for each account you are bringing in. Set the filter to filter on "from" the email address, and put the mail into the appropriate inbox folder.

In re Firefox spellcheck, the answer is Yes.
