Hi

What I want to do was to add this action in the mailing filters ( like
"Move to folder", "Set status"... they are in <actionset> in
filtertypes.xml ), but I was told this is not possible.

I was also told that modifying the subject of a mail, or the "display"
of the subject of this mail in evolution, is not possible either.

Is this correct?
