Details

There should be a way to plug in an external program to do email filtering. There are so many ways and potential tests one can think of that the build-in filters will never be able to implement all. This can go to as far as NLP methods for actually scanning the text of the email. There should be a versatile and well documented interface for external programs to do this job.
Just noticed this is a DUP of bug 80439
