Firsly you need to be aware of the DOM that allows you access to the objects within Scribe. Incomming mail will have a from field: mail.from Which is of type 'Object::Address'. Now that object has a Contact field that refers to any local contact matching the email address: mail.from.contact And the interesting field in the contact object is 'folder' or the path to the contact in the folder tree: mail.from.contact.folder Thus we can write a filter to check against the folder name, which will be null for someone we havn't got a contact record for. mail.from.contact.folder NOT like "/contacts*" Should do what you want. |
