Nested folders....pplllleeeaaasssseeee. This is one of the core fuctions of any mail client and should have been added years ago.

Nested folders are essential - its difficult to transfer a nested structure to a un-nested structure.

Absolutely agree that nested folders are needed. I tried importing some from Outlook and wound up with several individual folders with the right folder names but nothing in the folders.

I agree it's absolutely critical to employ this feature as soon as possible. How can we get an update on where this stands? I purchased the Visionary plan without knowing this feature didn't exist. I may request a refund if this isn't going to be available soon.

Nested folders must be fully supported, just right now the brigde is only capable of copying very small amounts of email, before aborting.

This is a deal-breaker for me to fully migrate.

Any update on this?

This feature is the main one I need to fully switch email providers.

How far are you working on this feature Proton-team?

Very disappointed that there are no nested folders and that I only get 200 with the 5 Mg account

I just opened my proton mail account today finding out there are no nested folders....
Very disappointed.

Please do!!!!!

Waiting for this to come out of beta, or alpha, or whatever.

I was able (29/12/2020) to use nested folders in protonmail via thunderbird (imap) using the following steps:

1) Create nested folder structure using beta webinterface (https://beta.protonmail.com/)
2) Refresh imap folder list in thunderbird (connected via protonmail bridge) and restart thunderbird

Creating nested folders via protonmail bridge / imap seems not to work at the time of writing.

Wanted to vote for this but it was closed. This is a necessary feature. I have paid for the plus version without realizing there were no nested folders available.

Nested FOLDERS (NOT "labels") and filters to sort incoming mail into them, is necessary for me to be able to use ProtonMail. I use GMX email now, SOLEY because of the Nested Folders (vs "labels"), but I don't consider it any more "secure" than Gmail or Yahoo. They have no private, paid version.

3 levels of subfolders and 100 filters is adequate for me. When will your Beta version be stable for normal use?

I cannot fully give up on my Yahoo email account until you add subfolders. How hard can that be?

This is the one and only reason that I have not fully migrated to Protonmail. I cannot over emphasize the importance of this feature so please help to make this available soon. Thank you.

The need for nested or subfolders folders is critical in order to store my e-mail with Proton Mail. My mail application linked with Proton Mail Bridge has approximately 70 to 80 nested or subfolders in several layers. These subfolders are critical to organize and find past messages. Please complete the Nested Folders feature as soon as possible. Please also do not limit the number of subfolders or the number of folder layers.

I cant move away from my old email system until nested folders are available if I want to preserve my present system. I assume this is true for the majority of people having 100 - 10 000 emails. This is keeping me going from FREE to PLUS!

The sub-folder feature is available in beta, yes.
But... It only allows for a three level sub folder structure. Compared to how most people use sub-folders in other mail systems, three levels isn't sufficient.

Please, ProtonMail team, do open up the sub-folder option for "limitless" levels.

I would actually prefer to have columns to filter e-mails based on metadata rather than nested folders.
