"Never match archive folders" also excludes sent folders

Hi,

I tried use the "Never match archive folders" option to exclude my very big mail archive, but I realised that also excludes folders marked as sent folders where is regularly move messages to. I think this is probably not intended behaviour.

Since the exclude folders functionality does not apply recursively (#237) I cannot use it to exclude only the archive hierarchy, and there is no option to restrict the search to match from the beginning of the folder name (or sort those first - #242), I am left with having to scroll through many folders when there are any matching substrings which is not great UX.

Thanks!

Start by reading issues #237 and #242 to understand the related folder-exclusion and sorting limitations, then reproduce the behavior with “Never match archive folders” enabled. Done means archive folders are excluded without also excluding folders marked as sent folders, while the existing folder-search behavior remains intact.
