M2 Filters editing

M2 Filters editing
Tue, 01 Apr 2008 10:18:28 +030
Hi. I use M2 and have a lot of filters in there already. What I want to do  
is to reorganize the structure of them, If I can just drag the filter to  
another to make it nested - I would be happy, but drag'n'drop seems not  
working here. So how can I do this? Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid there is no easy solution. The difficult solution is to note  
down the rules you used, and then create new filters in the new locations  
where you want them. For non-rule based filters, it is slightly easier, as  
you can drag messages from one filter to another.

Is it really so easy with non-rule based filters? Because when I tried to  
learn these filters to filter my email - I got many problems.
My filters did not learn wery well, I always got many messages appearing  
in wrong filters. I read that Bayesian logic behind this type of filtering  
in M2 is very nice implemented, but did not managed to make It work for me  
:(
