“Quickly file mails into folders”

by Cyril Roger

MsgFiler is a little Apple Mail plugin to quickly file your emails into different folders.

The plugin is easy to install and accessible from your menu bar. All you need to do is select the emails you want to move, press Command - 9 and then type in the name of the folder you want to drop the messages in. You can also select "move with MsgFiler" from the Message tab in the Mail menu bar.

The standout feature of the plugin is selecting the folder into which you'll drop your mails. Not only can you choose multiple messages but also, thanks to find as you type you can quickly find the most adequate folder for your emails. Also click "Show" in the MsgFiler window to quickly open up the selected mail folder.

On the downside, users will claim that emails can still be quickly organized in different folders in Apple Mail, either via good ol' drag and drop or by setting up solid rules to start with. MsgFiler gives you another alternative.

Even though it's not absolutely essential, MsgFiler is a good Apple Mail plugin to quickly store your emails into folders.
