I recently purchased an M2 Mac Mini and am running Ventura 13.3.1. I can no longer create sub folders in Mac Mail. I upgraded from the last version of Catalina and was able to accomplish the task with Catalina. Help!
If you have the sidebar view enabled in Mail, Can you not just right click on a folder (mailbox) then choose New Mailbox? This would create a sub-folder (mailbox) under the one you chose from add new mailbox. If you don't see the sidebar, click on the menu item 'View' and select 'Show Sidebar'.
Hi Randall_2023, thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I have tried all of the normal measures to no avail. That's the issue, I'm thinking that there may be a glitch with Ventura or else Apple, in their infinite wisdom, somehow changed the format. I was able to do it with Catalina before I "upgraded", and I use that term loosely, to Ventura.
dialabrain, it just won't work. I follow the normal procedure as normal and as I always did in Catalina and I actually do get the little arrow to the left of the primary folder, but it's very brief and then disappears as does the newly created sub-folder. Maybe it's something in my settings that I'm not aware of, but I've always been able to create sub-folders until I started using Ventura.
Well, the first thing to try is to boot into Safe Mode then restart normally. That sometimes fixes anomalies.
You mean like this yes?
Not sure what is causing your problem. I create a new folder "Ken", then I select it and create a new folder "Ken A".
I created another level…
I am not sure what the difference is you are seeing. I can add new folders to Mail in Ventura just as I can in Catalina.
Your image is precisely what I do, I get as far as the "Ken", the arrow to the left of the folder appears when I create "Ken A" and then both the arrow and the sub-folder (Ken A) disappear. Weird.
Are you trying to do so in the inbox or other standard mailbox? Mail has never supported that well.
In a mailbox that I created.
Then something is wrong with your setup.
Are you creating the folders on an IMAP server or On My Mac. If trying on a Server, try On My Mac to make sure it isn't a server issue.
Add sub folders to email with Ventura 13.3.1
