Dan,

This is done by design. Moving emails creates an unwanted side-effect. Xeams creates search indexes for every message that comes in. There are 3 indexes for every day for each category. It is quite possible that a user could move an email that was received before the current date. Xeams does not recreate an index for an older day. That is a very costly operation in terms of CPU cycles. Therefore, once a message is moved you will not be able to find that message via search.

Following steps will make the box checked by default if you are okay with the side-effect mentioned above.

• Locate server.properties file in $INSTALL_DIR\config folder. Create the file if it does not exist
• Add the following line:
  select.moving.checkbox=true
• Save the file
• Restart Xeams
