This is an old problem--anyone have any ideas? I've not had a single response...
High Sierra. My Mail "Move to.." prediction seems to be stuck to default filing in one folder. I wonder if there's anything I can do to reset this logic so that Mail.app starts re-learning and gets better in offering the correct folder I want to drop an email into.
You can move or copy messages between mail boxes or folders.
Move messages: Drag one or more messages to a mailbox in the favourites bar or the mail side bar. You can also Control-click a message, choose Move To, then choose a mailbox (or use the touch bar).Based on your history of moving messages in Mail, the likely target mailbox can be predicted for a selected message (macOS Sierra 10.12.1 or later). For example, if you move messages from a certain person to a Travel mailbox, the command Move to “Travel” is available for other messages from that person. If a mailbox can’t be predicted, Message > Move to Predicted Mailbox is dimmed.
Thank you. I do not need to know how to use it. I need to know if there is a way to reset its predictions.
I have had this happen, too. Eventually it started working well again. I don't know why/how.
