no we limite to 8 to avoid to make dialogbox too big. So no we will not add more :) And 8 is enough if you didn't success to create a valid filter with 8 criterias it's that there is a problem :) May be there is a chance to separate filtering e-mail addresses with coma in one criteria line? Thanks for a quick reply!

But perhaps in the future |
When number of filter criteria reaches 8 it is impossible to add more of them with GUI. Though it is possible to do if you: 1. Extract your filters 2. Edit extracted file (add "contents{NextLetter}=...", "field{NextLetter}=..." and "func{NextLetter}=..." lines) 3. Import the edited filter in kMail Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a filter 2. Write down 8 filter criteria 3. Witness "+" button become unavaliable Actual Results: A user is unable to create filters with more than 8 filter criteria with kmail UI Expected Results: It would be good if after, say, 8th criterium a scroll line appear and it would be possible to add 9th, 10th and more of them...
