Description Craig Bradney 2005-12-05 23:27:27 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.4-r1 
OS:                Linux

While the AV wizard provides imap destinations, the spam wizard does not. Not much more to it.

This is intended behavior. You normally cannot filter into an IMAP folder, so these folders are deactivated in the wizard.
You even get a warning if you manually changed the selection in the wizard-generated filter action into an IMAP folder.

It might work for you, but it might be related to having activated the ActionScheduler. If you have, please deactivate it. The developers intentionally have hidden the activation of it because that code isn't fully tested (as you can see in bug 113730).

I havent activated the ActionScheduler. I dont see why filtering into an IMAP folder is not allowed. By doing so you are moving mail from possibly remote folders into a local folder. I want to store all my mail within IMAP so I can see all of it across machines.

It is technically different from a move operation into a local folder. That 
functionality hasn't been implemented yet.
BTW, I've just tested to use an IMAP folder as target for a filter operation 
on messages from a POP account. The filtered messages went into the local 
inbox and not into the specified IMAP folder.

Ok, so its functionally different but it doesnt mean this is an invalid request.

As for IMAP filtering, my mail is downloaded via getmail/cron and is in my inbox when it arrives. My filters place mail from there into subfolders of the inbox perfectly well. It also works from IMAP account to IMAP account, ie server in some part of the world to local server.

I want this as well!

Comment 8 Daniel Aleksandersen 2007-09-17 00:52:06 UTC

This is a feature request. How can it be invalid?
