On the other hand just doing server side stuff (filtering/spam detection) doesn't mean that they don't want to do it on the client side too. On the mailserver we have a site wide spamfilter, and I have a server side sieve/procmail rule that puts all spams in the Spam folder. However I can't change the rules they use to detect spam, so I want to do it on the client too... (and not just on the inbox, as I do most filtering on the server). So it would be nice to be able to do both spam filtering and "ordinary" filtering on all folders automatically, not only the inbox. > > * spam messages are moved to Spam folder or deleted > > It would be nice to at least have an option that this is controlled by > the user. i.e. by a filter and vFolder/search rule to match the spam > bit. Combining server and client side spamfiltering, it would be nicer to have a "real" Spam folder. /torkel _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
