subject filter is not working ?

[changchichung]

my config.yml

imap:
  username: user@abc.com
  password: abc123
  server: mail.abc.com
  port: 993

attachments:
  mimetypes:
    - application/zip
    - image/png
    - text/plain
    - image/jpeg

mails:
  subjects: #[] 
    - invoce, amazon

but mail-download still fetch all attachments , no matter what the subject is.
for example , I wrote a mail which subject is Chinese which is obviously not contain the keyword in yml file
but mail-downloader still download the attachment from that mail.

Hey @changchichung

sorry, never saw this ticket somehow - do you were able to solve this?
Maybe i download all pdfs and only the mails with the filters are converted to pdfs

can confirm, attachments dont have subject filters like the yaml shows

best solution would be to implement search filters for this:

imap:
  username: user@abc.com
  password: abc123
  server: mail.abc.com
  port: 993

attachments:
  mimetypes:
    - application/zip
    - image/png
    - text/plain
    - image/jpeg
  subjects: # new 
    - invoice, amazon # new

mails:
  subjects:
    - invoice, amazon

even better could be something like this:

imap:
  username: user@abc.com
  password: abc123
  server: mail.abc.com
  port: 993

attachments:
  application/zip:
    subjects:
      - invoice, amazon
    filesize: 1-12mb
  image/png
  text/plain
  image/jpeg

mails:
  subjects:
    - invoice, amazon
