Vista - [Suggestion] Contact Folders in Received Files

11-12-2008

After some time, my Received Files Folder becomes a bit.. crowded and
confusing.
So, since WLM developers are really reading this (which makes all feel that
we are not talking to the walls) I would like to make a suggestion:

Add the option to save the files to specific contact folders. Inside the
Received Files Folder, create a new folder (with the email of the contact) in
which the files are stored.
In this way, is much easier to later find files since we can narrow the
"search" to a specific user.

(Yes, I would like a full control console with user and date, but I'm happy
with the folders).

Opinions? How do you address this problem?

Hi,

Sounds reasonable to me and certainly has been suggested before.
