This is not an example of Apple software doing "the opposite" of improving.

What Sandman or the OP called them is irrelevant to the fact that the actual SOFTWARE only calls them "smart mailboxes".
To that fact, sure. To our discussion not.
Try again. Use English.
In the light of the discussion however it has another flavor; if a long thread one only speaks of "smart folders" that suddenly become "smart mailboxes" it makes well a difference, if the "smart folders", that some were claiming to be the solution, are in fact called "smart mailboxes" in the software. That's what i expressed with: "...so logically one would in the help search for "smart folders", which returns nothing since Apple call them "smart mailboxes".
That was the very point: Sandflea pretending to have substantiated his claim, while he did only throw a *wrong word* in the discussion, instead of -like you- bringing a concrete example of how Apple's solution looks like.
