Enhance Email Filtering Options
Open Discussion
For those who use it, the email filtering option is a fantastic feature that enables the user to ask the server to perform a certain action when email that matches a certain criteria are met. However, unlike other mail solutions, cPanel's solution is quite limited, so I would love to see some more options.

Currently, the main "rules" (excluding spam and other uncommon ones) that can be completed are:
- From
- Subject
- To
- Reply
- Body
- Any Header
- Any Recipient
I would like to see:
- Apply to All
- Within specific time or date range
- With an attachment
- To/Cc/Bcc/Reply To options (e.g. sent only to me, when I'm CC'd.....)
- Sensitivity or Importance markings
///////////////////////////
Currently, the "actions" that can be completed are:
- Discard Message
- Redirect to Email
- Fail with Message (which returns a "Mail Delivery System - Mail Delivery Failed" error from the daemon/server)
- Stop Processing Rules
- Deliver to Folder
I would love to see:
- Mark it as read
- Mark it as flagged
- Delete it
- Change "Deliver to Folder" to "Move" and "Copy" options
- Automatic Response (NOT the Daemon but rather like an auto-response where I control 100% of the message)

Further ideas can be found within Office Outlook, Google Mail, Outlook.com/Hotmail and other places, which all have far more in-depth options.
