Attachment folders

Attachment folders organize attachments. A folder is a container for one or more attachments. You can move and copy attachments among folders. A copy operation allows attachments with the same stored path name to exist in different folders in the same application edition. Within a folder, an attachment's key is its stored path name.

You use folders to group related attachments and to permit a set of attachments to be handled as a unit when the attachments are retrieved and deleted from the library. Deleting a folder deletes all attachments contained in the folder.

You can have only a single level of folders; sub-folders are not allowed.

The name of a folder is a string of any length. The name can contain any printable character, including space and punctuation.
