Bug ID: 2360 Summary: Set maildir flags from a filter Product: Exim Version: 4.91 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: wishlist Priority: medium Component: Filters Assignee: ni...@exim.org Reporter: bugzilla.exim.si...@arlott.org CC: exim-dev@exim.org I want to be able to set the maildir flags "F" (Flagged) and "S" (Seen) from a filter. Currently I have to use additional routers that read "~/.forward_flag" and "~/.forward_read" filter files. These use additional transports that set "maildir_tag = :2,F" or "maildir_tag = :2,S". If mail is not seen by these filters then "~/.forward" is processed as normal. This is awkward to use because I have to repeat processes for determining which folder to deliver email to in each filter file. I propose extending the "save" filter command to allow a "maildir_flag" option that takes a string of flags to set, e.g.: save Maildir/ maildir_flag F save Maildir/ maildir_flag S save Maildir/ maildir_flag FS It would also be useful to be able to set a string user variable and then use it later, e.g. set u0 "" set u0 "F" save Maildir/ maildir_flag $u0 A "maildir_allowed_flags" setting on the redirect router would list the allowed flags, e.g.: maildir_allowed_flags = FS Disallowed flags would be filtered out without any error message. This string would be provided in a $maildir_flags variable when delivering using the directory_transport. If no flags have been provided then the string will be empty. The "maildir_tag" transport option can then be used to insert the flags. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
