Filtering mail into folders for virtual users?

[iandouglas736]

How do we set up filtering rules for our virtual Email users to auto-filter messages into separate folders?

I have a handful of users who want to set up a sever-side filter to move incoming messages into subfolders of their Maildir setups.

They can do that with their mail clients.

Serverside filtering? I don't know of any packages that do that.

I suppose you could write one which would go through all the emails and move them if they met certain rules. It shouldn't be too hard to do because each email is in it's own file.

If you decide to write it don't forget to delete all the user's Dovecot indexes so Dovecot will rebuild them on the next login.
