Create a colorless top-level Mail folder
Authored by: fnordle on Mar 15, '04 11:53:01PM

Actually, I've found the easiest way to create colorless folders, and folders within folders, etc., is to simply open $home/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Make as many new folders/folder hierarchies as you like- when you open Mail, they'll show up as the "colorless" boxes. By creating a folder and naming it "folderName.mbox", it turns into a regular blue folder. Removing the ".mbox" extension restores it to white box status. Also, appending ".mbox" to a colorless folder, you will restore it to it's former "blue" status. Hope this helps! :)
