An in-depth look at Mozilla Mail
  Search and Filters [ << Previous | Next >> ]

Search and Filters

  • Search
    • Unified interfaces for mail, news
    • Uses mail database files for fast indexing
    • boolean logic - backend more capable than frontend!
    • Future directions: tighter integration with RDF and Mozilla Search
  • Filters
    • Share lots of code with search - indexing/matching
    • Standard filter actions - move, delete, flag, etc
    • Future directions: full scriptability
