Create a new rule, add action "Set Label".
Ok, that's the manual way. I wanted to know if a more automatic way is possible. For example, in Gmail, I mark an email as 'Important' (not tag: I click on the 'box' [semi-square-losangle box] after the subject on conversation view). I do nothing more: I set _no_ keywords to be tracked, nor from fields. I just mark the email as 'important'. Next time the topic is covered elsewhere (for example, a random iwl3945 driver thread on linux-wireless), as I have marked in the past an email with similar terms as Important, Gmail tags such mails as Important and they appear on the Important folder. I wanted to know if there was the possibility of getting the same functionality using some sort of combination of existing tools. -- Pedro _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
