Yup, still the same effect. Adding a draftsubmissionfolder in the backup
topic of the portal is not possible. At least not from my place.

You are mentioning to Itamar's Draft? Yes, it's possible to put it in
ZBook. I was only thinking that everything now had to go into the portal.
But, <gasp> now I understand it fully. The Portal is just a search
function. Not something which actually contains the doc (a hierarchy of
docs) for misinterpreting this stuff.

Ok.

OK.
