Does anyone know a tool that allows to assign an email address or subject heading to a specified folder with just one click?

The method of spam filters to discriminate emails by means of a keyword is not sufficiently reliable (important emails can easily be deleted as spam). The only save method is to assign individual email addresses or subject lines to a specified folders. For this task, the filter tool of Thunderbird is too compicated. It requires several steps (1. click on email address of email; 2. select filter in drop down menu; 3. select folder (several clicks); 4. click on return; 5. click on o.k.; 6. click on "Execute now").

Helpful would be a tool that allows to generate one (or several) button(s) that complements the buttons "Answer", "Delete", "Junk" in the frame that shows a newly received email. The buttons that are generated could be "Assign emails with this email address to filter A" (in brief: "Filter A, email address") and "Assign subject heading to filter A" (in brief: "Filter A, subject").

Those buttons would allow to easily build up a precise filter for spam that filters only emails from specific senders or with specific subject lines. Does such a tool exist? If not, could the programmers of Thunderbird provide this?

Thanks in advance.

Using the filters to manage spam is a fool's game.

The QuickFilters add-on offers a drag-and-drop model to create filters. But fundamentally you're trying to use the filters for a purpose for which they were not intended.

Thanks, Zenos, for your answer!

QuickFilters has the same disadvantage as the filter tool of Thunderbird: it asks the user to choose between various options each time heshe wants to assign an email to a folder.

However, I am looking for a tool that carries out always the same steps. So, a kind of macro in the shape of an addon.

Btw, I use the filter tool as spam filter since approximately three years and it works fine regarding my purpose to automatically move emails with specific addresses or subject lines to an assigned folder. Everyday, I add one or two new email addresses or subject lines to the filter. The procedure is just unnecessarily complicated.

Anyone an idea regarding this?
