Welcome to the mailbox user forum
Rule "File into" defaults to "Inbox" and can not be changed
Published
I intent to create a rule to move incoming email with a subject into an already created subfolder of "Inbox". However the dropdown menu of "Select folder" is greyed out and can not be changed, see screenshot. Any work arounds possible? Or is this a lacking feature?

Can't you click "Select folder"? Yes, the UI is horrible.

You are double right! Thanks :)

Ah, yes, the grey-on-white text which looks like a label is clearly a button. Thanks for pointing it out.

Just a small bit of feedback for mailbox.org ... this is clearly an issue. I just joined yesterday and was doing the exact same thing, by clicking on the thing that looked like a button or dropdown, and not clicking on the thing that looked like a label, but was actually the select button. If after 13 months UI mess like this isn't fixed or at least changed, makes me wonder about the longevity of the system - is it just left to rot? - and there I was thinking I might switch everything over, but perhaps not.
Do any developers, or even management, read these forums? Do you take feedback? Do you act on it? This is feedback from us, so feedback from you would be most welcome. Thanks.
