The "Edit Mail Filters" page is the only one page in the Sqwebmail
where a user has to click also the "Save all changes" button to save
his changes. The webmail hasn't it at "Preferences", "Address Book"
and "Edit Autoreplies" pages. I don't understand why it exists there,
because it's not consistent and ergonomic.
The reason this is done this way is because the user may not want the new
filter to be at the end of the current filters, because it may do the wrong
thing there, and that the new filter belongs way up front.
Or, if the user needs to fix the mail filter, and the fix involves modifying
more than one existing entry, and they must be modified atomicly.
This is why an explicit "commit", or "save" action is needed for mail
filters.
Thank you very much for your explanation! I can understand these
reasons, but I think that there are good for advanced, not regular
users which need a very simple tools. Believe me, that they often
don't remember about saving the changes in their mail filters.
It's a training issue, then.
I just don't see any better way of doing this.
