174937 - Multiple Filter Actions

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 13145

(MailNews Core :: Filters, enhancement)

Description

[Ben Clewett]

Having used the (excelent) filters on Eudora, I find the filters used in mozilla
NewsMail to be rather primitive.

My biggest problem is there is no way of assigning multiple actions to a filter.
 For instance, with some of my Mailing Lists, I want to file them AND mark them
as read.  Which cannot be done.  I am therefore interupted many hundreds of
times a day to be informed of new email, which I have no interest in.

Eudora handles this by multiple itteration and complete parsing.  An email can
therefore be parse by the filters several times to complete a complex action.  

I hope this is of some use, and I look forward to more great versions.
