Hi, If you're going to do a filter plugin, I see three ways to do so:
- Implement a unique plugin that will be able to handle multiple
filtering systems (client-side, sieve, exim, etc)
- Implement multiple plugins, one for each filtering system
- Implement one general plugin with some hooks (Filter API) where each
particular plugin (client-side, sieve, etc) would use them
Just as a suggestion, I recommend to implement the simpler one (just client-side filtering plugin, as you say) and then see wich of these options is better/easier to implement and to manage. Personally, I'd prefer the thirst solution, which is extensible, clearer and faster (I suppose).

I'm inclined to agree. :-) I wanted to write a plugin for dspam as well. I think providing an "internal" filter API and offering drivers would be the best solution, but that's just my personal opinion.

hopefully you will agree ;-)
I think this would be the best solution. Starting with a simple filtering and leave it extensible. So now that turns me on but actually I don't know yet if I have the time to start writing a plugin for that - especially because I have to learn the plugin structure before (but it seems to be very clear).
Filtering was the first thing I missed in roundcube. I'll keep you informed ...
Feel free to ping me wherever if you need help. Also, do you have something else on the server? I'm wondering if cpanel etc. offer an API to add/edit filters too.

Till, thanks a lot for the great offer ;-) I will do so ...
Actually our mailserver setup is fairly simple. We use postfix for smtp and courier for POP and IMAP. Then, the user accounts are virtual and placed in a postgresql database. Postfix is giving the mails to Spamassasin and ClamAV (handled by Amavis). That's the only filtering we have. Because of that (among other pounts) I like the client side filtering in roundcube most ;-)
