Introduction

Qt mobility messaging when used in Qt quick, involve the component of MessageModel. Due to a bug in the implementation, standard folders enums are not exposed to QML:

        enum StandardFolder {
            InboxFolder = QMessage::InboxFolder,
            DraftsFolder = QMessage::DraftsFolder,
            OutboxFolder = QMessage::OutboxFolder,
            SentFolder = QMessage::SentFolder,
            TrashFolder = QMessage::TrashFolder
}

To add folder filters, one have to use the values by hand:

                        MessageFilter {
                            type: MessageFilter.StandardFolder
                            value: 4 //MessageFilter.SentFolder
                            comparator: MessageFilter.Equal
                        }
