This may be a duplicte of bug 388828 ...

If a filter contains a "Forward To" action, that action is ignored.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Create a filter which includes a "Forward To" action and a valid email address.
2.   Apply the filter to a message.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.  The message is not forwarded.  It never appears in the Sent Mail folder and never appears at the target email address.

EXPECTED RESULT
The message is sent to the email address specified in the Forward To filter action.

Git commit e82dcb9a52423dbe5f5217bc4156a60142cbb97c by Laurent Montel.
Committed on 14/04/2022 at 05:58.
Pushed by mlaurent into branch 'release/22.04'.

Disable for the moment  "FilterActionForward::newAction" as it's not ported to async

Generate mail need to use async method but filter is sync method
=> it can't work.
I need to rewrite a lot of code.
For release we need to disable it
