I’d like a unified folder for my starred messages. There isn’t an automatically generated folder or tag. Ideally, there should be, but I’d like to ascertain whether a workaround exists (before I file a ticket at Bugzilla).
As this comment that quotes another user explains, chronologically:
-
Select “Edit”
-
Select “Find”
-
Select “Search Messages”
-
Select “Save as Search Folder.”
- For me, selecting anything except solely the individual “Inbox” and “Archive” folders - especially the “Starred” folders that GMail creates - caused duplicates to appear.
I noticed you can select “Status = Starred” in this search message function, but you can only apply it to one account, so you would have to repeat it for each account : defeating the purpose of having starred in one place.
The only way I can find to view starred messages is to go to each account folder individually & locate the starred folder.
Its baffling that TB provides a STAR on every email & then no way to see a list of starred messages. & doubly baffling that its a 17 year old issue.
