Hi,

Like everyone else I would like to add my two cents: it would be nice to have an extra feature concerning filters:

1. Either give the possibility to define some rules inside a filter (something like: 
filter mails from @kde.org 
then 
	if abc@kde.org put it in folder ABC, 
	if 123@kde.org put it into folder 123) 

2. Or create sub-filters 
(example : 
        filter1[mails from @kde.org]
                subfilter11[mail from abc@kde.org]
                subfilter12[mail from 123@kde.org]
)
The subfilters can be triggered only when their parent has validated the content ...

I agree that you can achieve the same result today but this proposition
gives you the opportunity to put some order into your filtering system and
also decreases the total amount of processing (subfilters triggered only when parent gives OK) ...

What do you think?

Marian
