Boolean AND OR for Thunderbird Filter Rules

[nose_gnome]

I think it would be extremely useful to be able to add Message Filter Rules with the ability to use AND OR operators.  Currently, the closest thing to this is "Match any of the following", but sometimes I want to be able to filter depending on if X is true, or Y and Z are both true, not just X or Y or Z are true.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

Just to add to this idea, I have a use case where I get emails from a global service "Amazon" for example and I want to sort all things related to orders into a folder, so I have an additional rule of "Subject - contains - Order", but because I order from different countries when I'm working or visiting, thus have an Amazon account in that country I want to add an additional "Subject - contains - Pedido".

This is also very common for food delivery apps and the likes, an example of two emails both getting sent to the same folder for the same reason, but the language is different would be:

> From: Just Eat - Subject: Tu pedido ha sido aceptado
> From: Just Eat - Subject: Your order has been accepted

Currently this would require two rules of "Move Orders to Food Orders (English)" and "Move Orders to Food Orders (Spanish)".

If I was able to just create a submatch of the subject where I can specify that this would be an OR case, I could condense this down to "Move Orders to Food Orders".

It is long overdue to introduce logical operators. I cannot understand why this extremely useful functionality, which has been suggested by users in many places in the past, has still not been implemented. Perhaps the new suggestion will help 🙂
