auto archived folders should appear in a different colour

[Stephanie S Bolton]

When auto archived folders appear in the 'all mail view window' of outlook
they look exactly as the 'live' inbox files, when multiple auto archived
folders are opened out so that fill th window it is hard to tell if you are
in the live inbox or the archive inbox. A key reason why i miss-file my
emails.(very confusing and frustrating!)

For clarity why can't auto archived folders appear with the folder names in
a different colour? - so instantly the user can tell if he/she is in the live
or archived section.
