Mail General: related bug: search and move function transfers wrong messages

You should be logged in to post new messages. Create an account.

I was just now using the (excellent) search function, however that also
has a similar bug.

-- What I did as a test to get started with organizing my inbox was to
create new folders (friends, family, work, etc).

-- I then used the search function to sort out the different groups of
people sending me e-mail 

(for instance from *@company name, personally addressed to "Matthew",
"mailing list" subject header, etc).

The search function worked perfectly -- so far.  For each category I
searched under,  all the e-mails to me which matched that category
would show up.

I would press "select all" -- a button which is hard to find, by the
way, and then press "move" so that all those particular emails would go
into the new sub-folder I had made.

So far, so good.  The problem is that not all of the messages I selected
would be transferred into the new sub-folder.  Instead, what I got was a
mix:  about half of the messages in the new folder would be messages
which I had in fact selected.  The other half would be spam messages or
other messages from my inbox which I had not specified in my search.

Gandi Mail is still definitely in beta, however it shows great promise. 
I look forward to continue using it, and having more functionality as
the bugs are fixed.

Cheers,

Matthew
