I'm trying to get the equivalent of:
if new and (from or header or to)
using:
filter ryan
new
from xx
or header received xx
or to xx
action move Spam
This doesn't seem to work, however. The command it runs is:
C: 1005 SEARCH ALL NEW OR (FROM "xx") OR (HEADER "received" "xx") (TO "xx")
Which I would guess implies:
if (new or from or header) and to
What is the proper way to do this? Is the new mask even necessary? I
figured it would be faster, since I don't need to filter all ~800 emails
in my inbox, but merely those which are unread.
Also, with all the pseudocode examples used to explain your syntax, why
not actually USE the pseudocode? I think if/then/else statements are
pretty simple for most people to understand, but at the very lease allow
parentheses or brackets in the config file to be more clear. Just a
suggestion...
Thanks,
Ryan
