[Bug 850106] Re: Fails to append sent mail to mbox in post-processing

 

I got the error message to go away by going to
Edit > Preferences > Mail Accounts > [ select my default mail account ] > 'Edit' button > 'Defaults' tab

and then setting a folder (ex. 'On This Computer' > Sent), clicking OK,
and then re-doing the same thing, but un-setting the folder the second
time around (by holding down the ctrl key and clicking the selected
folder to un-select it) and then hitting OK again.

After this, in the 'Defaults' tab it should say "Sent Messages Folder:
<click here to select a folder>"
