API mail_user_filter_add

[abdi]

Hello Till,

I have used the API functions (mail_user_filter_add, mail_user_filter_delete, mail_user_filter_get, mail_user_filter_update) ..

But they dont have any effect or rather don't yield any results. I created a filter with action DELETE but I still get the mail ...

Do these functions really work? I ask because there's no such feature listed in client's control panel in ISPConfig3.

Thanks, Joseph

The feature is available for the client, see Mailbox details > filter tab

Thanks alot Till.

I have indeed seen it though it has not worked regardless of the key words I define with action delete ...

Did you test it by using the ispconfig interface or api? I've tested it here by using the interface with the current 3.0.5 SVN branch version and the filters work.

Till am not sure why it would not work on my server ...Please see attachment and that rule was created through ISPConfig panel.

I also sent a test message from YahooMail with the following subjects:

Subject #1: jesus cares
Subject #2: does jesus care

And in ALL the above cases, the messages were delivered to my inbox yet i expected them to be deleted as I had indicated with the action.

maybe the rules were not written to disk, e.g. because the server.sh cronjob is not running or a similar issue. Check the .sieve file of this mailbox if you use dovecot or the mailfilter file if you use courier to see if it contains the filter rules.
