    I made some screenshots... of my current thunderbird folders and filters.
    This is what pop3-fans mis when they switch to imapi... and why I was hoping I could stay on pop3... but having your e-mail my 'Document archiving system' with me everywhere is what made me change...

    the link to a folder in my dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/sh/uq7d18ax81wvwlt/AADMxlJxp2JWflunf_a32Lysa?dl=0

    Hy Arron, Thanks for your response.

    Let me try to sum it up the most easy way for you and your programmers. It is mend to be nice...
    Filters for outbound and inbound should and can be under the same header 'Filters'

    Inbound and outbound filters should have the same options:

    Filters should have a name.

    Standard options:
    1/0 use at incomming e-mail
    1/0 use at outbound e-mail
    1/0 After sending
    [x] must match all criteria [ ] must match one [ ] always do action no criteria.

    Fields to use in filters:
    Subject
    body (text)
    from
    to
    cc
    bcc
    To or CC
    from, to, cc or bcc (so you not need 4 lines to catch an email adres to filter on.)

    Only if you can execute filters on a folder with email that is in webmail for a while:
    Date
    Size (KB)
    Status (forward / read / unread / replyed / label / star) (this is a maybe, not for me)

    Selectors to use:
    Contains
    Not contains
    Starts with
    Not starts with
    Matches
    Not matches

    Smaller then (with dates only if you can do it on folders)
    Bigger then (with dates)

    Maybe: Is in my adres book / is not in my adres book with to/from/cc/bcc (I do not use it but maybe some likes to)

    Multiple Actions possible:
    Move to folder
    Copy to folder
    Mark Read
    Mark unread (if on folders done or if other filters have put it on read a new filter can make it unread)
    Mark with a star or label (what mdeamon uses in the webclient)
    Mark priority (high normal low) (I do not use it but if you do make nice filters it is something many may like)
    Delete ( and/or move to trash)
    No notification (for emails that are just a logging for example)
    Mailbox alert (not standard notification but something extra that makes you read this email direct for the really important ones) (I can understand if this does not make it)
    Stop filtering (If it matches this one, than stop with filtering)

    Within the actions you may like to sort the order after the user makes on to make sure the software can do all it actions correct for example:
    1 Copy
    2 forward
    3 Move
    4 Mark
    5 Notify
    6 Stop filters.

    When someone deletes a folder, filters can be compromised... make sure that the folder is changed to the inbox or there is a message in the webclient
    And probably more checks need to be build in. ( we only think of the good we like to have, you also need to fix the bad happing ;-) )

    I think I put in a complete something for filter. Enligh is not my native language so maybe not all is clear. please do ask for answers.

    Thanks for considering this extra function.

    Best regards,
