Please do note that I do not move to the Mailbox_Source because this

I think I could achieve an identical result by tagging the "fresh"
mails before moving and untagging them after verification ( or vice
versa ), which is "easier" for you to implement. :-))
I think that would also be a nicer way to handle that.
I think GUI-wise the "new-move" version could look like this
[From] [is in] [Mailbox/SmartMailbox] [From]
[Generic Move to first matched Source Mailbox of]
[Mailbox/SmartMailbox]
or
[Dynamic Move to first matched Source of] [Mailbox/SmartMailbox]
or
[Fuzzy Move to Source of] [Mailbox/SmartMailbox]
Just some ideas and have a nice WE,
I think this illustrates that it's hard to make such a feature
intuitive. A better (and cleaner) approach would be to make the action
independent of the conditions. The action could then be something
like:
Move to Related Mailbox based on [Header] in [Mailbox]
Benny,
When [Header] means the actual functionality we have for filtering on
“header contained info” then this will be a great feature.
The “Mailbox” could be any smart or IMAP mailbox/account. It would
trigger MailMate to look for the first message in Mailbox with the
same header value. When found, the new message would be moved to the
same IMAP mailbox as the found message. It would be like an IMAP
mailbox variant of the Submailboxes feature for smart mailboxes.
This would allow a worst case near-linear running time if a large
number of messages are “moved” (linear in terms of the size of the
mailbox used in the action).
Note that in this case there would be no need for a condition for the
rule except for maybe limiting the messages triggering the action.
A somewhat related feature would allow simply creating IMAP mailboxes
based on a header value:
Move to Submailbox of [IMAP Mailbox/Account] based on [Header]
This would be a nice to have, and I already see some use for it.
From a “what I like to have first” point-of-view this is last on my
list.
Thanks
Marc
