For sorting email I would like to be able to distinguish copies of outgoing emails from inbound emails, both bearing my name/address in a sender field. This can occur both with copies originating locally and with received copies of emails directed to mailing lists of various sorts to which I may post. The difference is that copies of locally originating emails copied to a server mail folder contain no trace headers.
The "Date received" filter spec can be the current time, a specified time, or a time prior to the current time (i.e. age), but it can't be left unspecified. I assume that Evolution reads the "Date received" from the topmost Received trace header, but in the case of email _originating_ locally and simply stored via IMAP in a folder along with received mail, there are no trace headers. In the Evolution index, these show up with a single "?" in the "Received" column, but I don't see how one can filter for this. What would it take, and of whom should I make a request, that an additional option of "Unspecified" be added to the list of "Date received" message filter criteria to accommodate messages with no trace headers? Perhaps there's an option already there that I'm missing .... -- Lindsay Haisley | "The first casualty when FMP Computer Services | war comes is truth." 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | -- Hiram W Johnson _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
