Sieve-Example:Move email to a suffix folder: Difference between revisions
mNo edit summary
Say you have a single mailbox:
me@example.com
 
And you want to give out 'unique' addresses to companies so that you can control who has your address and helps you track and filter your email. You may want to give out addresses such as:
me-amazon@example.com
me-ebay@example.com
 
This is all possible with two things:
*An alias - set on the Control Pages
*A sive filter
 
==Alias==
On the control pages, in the email setup, under aliases create an alias such as:
[[File:Email alias for suffix.png|thumb]]
 
==Sieve filter==
 
<syntaxhighlight>
 
 
 
 
require ["fileinto","imap4flags","variables","regex","mailbox"];
 
## filter messages sent to an address with a suffix eg, me-amazon@example.org.uk in to a folder called amazon if it exists.
if exists "X-Delivered-To" {
 
if header :regex "X-Delivered-To" "me-([A-z0-9]+)@" {
set :lower "suffix" "${1}";
fileinto "INBOX.Filtered.${suffix}";
}
stop;}
</syntaxhighlight>
 
== Create folder ==
The sieve filter puts email in to a folder called Filtered/XXX, and as long as XXX matches the suffix in the email address, the messages will get moved to there.
