GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 237590
TTL for email messages
Last modified: 2005-08-30 07:04:21 UTC
Package: Evolution Priority: Wishlist Version: 1.2.1 Synopsis: TTL for email messages Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Description: This is not a bug but a feature request. It would be nice to right-click on an email, select an option called "Time To Live", and specify a time for an email to remain in its folder before being sent to the Trash folder. Minutes, days, and months seem acceptable for TTLs. There could be a global setting for confirming these deletions. I thought of this feature because a lot of my work emails are only relevant for a certain length of time (e.g., conference call dial in info). It's a real pain to have to sift through old email to find these and delete them. However, if I could set a TTL on the email the first time I read it then I wouldn't have to go back to delete it. Hope this helps make Evolution a better piece of software than Outlook, which it already is :) Unknown reporter: cgreco1@nc.rr.com, changed to bugbuddy-import@ximian.com. Setting qa contact to the default for this product. This bug either had no qa contact or an invalid one.
Very much like bug 201824 but you are talking about folders and not POP server.
