Hi,
when using emclient with IMAP, I only get a notification/popup in windows when new mail arrives in the inbox.
If it is moved to a subfolder of the inbox by a rule on the mail server, there is no notification.
Is there a checkbox to set that I am missing?
Thanks for your help!
New mail notifications are only for messages arriving in the Inbox, so if they have already been moved by the server, you won’t get a notification.
The way to avoid that is to have eM Client move the messages rather than the server, then you will get a notification (or you can disable it in the local Rule).
Thanks for the clarification. This makes sense for POP3.
I think this is not a desired behavior when you have multiple devices such as laptop/tablet/smartphone and use IMAP for the sake of having an up to date mailbox on all devices.
Guys,
Is there any chance to get this kind of notifications working?
I need to move mails to subfolders on the server, because I don’t want eM Client to be always running on my PC while I receive emails on my phone.
By the way, a few mail clients for Android (e.g. SugarMail) do provide notifications no matter which folder an email arrives in.
This would be a really nice feature, especially since plus addressing is a thing.
I use plus addressing for certain stuff - like [email protected] would deliver the email directly to a “facebook” folder on the [email protected] account.
Besides, letting emClient handle rules makes no sense. Most people access their emails on multiple devices, and you don’t want to configure multiple rules across multiple devices.
Your post is what is called “advanced reasoning” in the world of AI.
Thank you!
