Hello et salut, may I join this discussion? The described function of "settings, email, filters" does only touch incoming mails.
I'd like to have a possibility to create a filter action for mails that are already sorted into a subfolder. For instance, I get every night about 60 notification mails from different customers' systems about backup, status, etc.. These mails go by filters into defined subfolders per customer and below that even per device - all no problem. But every let's say three months I want to clean up and delete all the mails in these subfolders older than 3 months, since these typically "ok" notifications are of no importance any more. Now, I must go to the subfolder, sort by sender and date, scroll down 3-400 lines to the last "date of no-importance", click the next 3-500 mails and then delete them (which only moves them into the waste bin, where I have to delete them a second time ...) - and as this clicking takes more time than the refresh interval, I can start from the top of the list again ... and repeat that for about 10 subfolders ... This task would already be easier, if there was within the "search within this folder" options a seletion entry "older/newer than <date>". When still working with Outlook, I had created a rule set, containing the definition of such a clean-up rule, and could execute it within any actual subfolder ... But only for this, it's not worth the license price. -- mit freundlichen Grüßen Michael Koch Am Donnerstag, Dezember 09, 2021 20:41 CET, schrieb "Paul van der Vlis" ([email protected]) <[email protected]>: Op 09-12-2021 om 20:20 schreef Jürgen Echter ([email protected]): > you can go to settings -> e-mail -> filters -> add filter and choose > which rules to apply and where to put that mails. I guess it will become more clear with a screenshot: https://vandervlis.nl/screenshot.png Yes, I could do what you write on a machine using SOGo 3.2.6. But on another machine with SOGo 5.0.1 I have less options. The action "File the message in ..." is missing for example. How do I get more options in the filter? I am a sysadmin not a user, this SOGo filter is an example.
