Used-defined email filters and automatic reply

I created a user-defined email filter for just my email account, that matched on the "From" header. The action I had defined for it was to send an automatic reply.

However, even though this filter was set to match on only a single "From" header, not all email, this automatic reply showed up in the "automatic reply" section of Usermin. It's my understanding that this automatic reply section is for automatically replying to all incoming email.

If this is not a bug, it is my opinion that if the automatic reply is not for all incoming email, it should not show up in this section. It can get very confusing if you have multiple filters matching on headers that have automatic replies defined as the action, but only one of those shows up in the automatic reply section.

Good point .. I will make the "Automatic reply" link only show autoreplies that are un-conditional.
