filter and perform action on incoming mail

[seankhl]

Hi, I'd like to set up filters that identify and perform actions on incoming mail. This is a common feature in other webmail services and is very useful: a search can be saved and associated with an action, to be performed whenever new mail is received on all new mail matching that filter.

For example I get annoying emails from some sender about the status of some service and I don't want to see them in my inbox. I want to remove them from the inbox and place them all in a designated folder, based on either the sender address or a string matching the text in the subject/body. Currently Verse does not support this. I can filter my mail manually, select all of the filtered messages, and perform actions on those selected messages, but I cannot automate this process when mail is checked.

Is there a way to use the developer extensions to provide this functionality? I was not able to identify a set of commands that could do so, but maybe I'm missing something.

@seanlaguna , thanks for your feedback. What you like to do seems to be resolved by mail rule. Currently Verse does not support mail rule. But you can create mail rule with Notes or iNotes. Mail rules will be run in Domino server side, so once you created mail rules, you will see the effect in Verse.
Here is a document of mail rule setting:

We will consider to add mail rule support in Verse future release. Thanks!
