# Emplacements des dossiers de courriels

You can set a different place where to store messages in your Draft folder and Sent folder in the Defaults section of the mail account editor (Edit Preferences Mail Accounts Edit Defaults).

You can define an Archive Folder for this account to move older messages there. This requires to first set a fallback folder under Edit Preferences Mail Preferences General Archive Mail. Selecting Message Archive in the main window moves the selected message to the specified folder.

For remote account types (accounts such as IMAP) you can also use folders on the mail server for Junk and Trash by selecting the corresponding Use a Real Folder option. In this case, Evolution's local virtual folders will not be used.
