[imapfilter-devel] Improving Filter Writing Effeciency

[Lefteris Chatzimparmpas]

Hello,

You can make use of Lua to accomplish this.  For example one way could be:

  for _, account in ipairs({ account1, account2 }) do
      account.INBOX:contain_subject('[OPEN]'):move_messages(account['help/Open'])
  end

You can add more accounts or even write a nice Lua function, and so on.
