No. It's a thing you can do, it's not the way someone must do it. > Whatever email client I am in, I just make a rule > > If users@lists.fedoraproject.org > Then.. > MOVE TO: "Fedora List" That's the kind of thing I do. Years ago I found that adding a "stop processing" option to the end of each rule to speed things up (I have had a high volume of mail for many years that's only starting to decline these last few years). That way, as soon as a rule applies to a mail, it stops trying to see if it also matches any other rules as well. Also, I put the rules that have to handle the most messages at the top of the rule list, that means that most of mail doesn't need as much processing to sort. I don't know why, but Evolution's mail filtering rules has always painfully slow (it didn't matter what headers I chose to use for my filtering rules). So slow I don't use it. Much slower than YAM on my old 16MHz Amiga. For many years I just weekly filtered mail from my inbox. I'd use the filter box to just show specific mail in my inbox (which is fast and nippy at filtering the messages), and drag and drop all mail showing into my preferred folders. That was actually far less painful. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.59.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 23 16:47:03 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
