Hi

   When you have many filters and move the mails to different folders it would be great to have a mail notification only for a spceific folder (like the Me folder where you get mails that have your e-mail add in "to" or "cc").

   Currently kmail provides mail notification for new mails but if you arre getting lots of mails (~1000/day) not all relevant a notifier which will pop up a dialog box only when a mail lands up in a specific folder would be a great thing to have.

 With previous version of kmail I had a script that ran thru the index file but with newer version the index files are encrypted(?)
  If there is still a way to do this pls let me know.

Try the "execute" filter rule to run for example "artsplay sound.wav".
