            Bug ID: 430397
           Summary: Ability to add block list/filter
           Product: kmail2
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

Outlook (desktop, not web), for all its faults, has a really powerful feature:
the ability to import a list of addresses to be automatically blocked.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/filter-junk-email-and-spam-in-outlook-on-the-web-db786e79-54e2-40cc-904f-d89d57b7f41d

For us professional translators this is an extremely useful feature because we
can then make use of the translator scammers email list
(http://www.translator-scammers.com/translator-scammers-info.htm#emails), save
it to .txt and import to Outlook to automatically block any scamming emails.

The imported file could be a newline- or space-separated list of email
addresses, and the action taken could be sending the email to trash, spam, or a
new folder.

That list for example contains over 18,000 addresses; it's entirely impractical
to add such number of addresses one by one. I wouldn't mind if it's just a new
filter capability or a plugin that makes use of spamassassin; this feature
would be awesome and unique on linux, as far as I know only Outlook can do
this.
