Please, always say what version of Evolution you are using.

3.22.6, which is the latest for the current release of my distro.
I didn't think of mentioning since I thought I was asking a basic question.

I would like to define multiple mbox folders, if it is possible, but
don't see how.

Are they all in a single directory?  If so use an account of type
"Standard Unix mbox spool directory". It will pick up each mbox file as
a mail folder.

No, hundreds.  See below.

Sorry, I misunderstood.
So if the mbox files are all in the same directory, I can have multiple mbox folders?
Now I have each of my email address with a different tree of mbox folders/files.
They each have in the root directory the basic inbox, sent, trash, etc folders.
There are many more folders, some in the root directory, most below.

So can I have a directory for each of my email addresses ?
And will folders in subdirectories be recognized ?
And how to create new/empty mbox files.
My existing software uses Mozilla style mbox.

I'll try experimenting to see how it works.

Thanks for the feedback.
