mails moved to a special folder should be automatically printed out

[john99]

Hello,

Question:
How can Zimbra be configurated in such a way that mails who are moved to a special folder, are than automatically be printed out?


Thank's a lot for any feedback.

In my opinion this has nothing to do with Zimbra.

What you could do is have your users move mail to a specail folder or a special user's folder, or even have a special user you send mail to print@example.com

Then using fetchmail and some funky scripting you could send the mail to a printer.

Another option is to write up a zimlet. For example, you can drag conversations or messages onto this zimlet which could send a SOAP request to move the conv/msg to a specific folder (or you could even prompt for one) and then dump the contents into a new window which would call window.print() to initiate the print dialog (this is how zimbra handles printing).

Obviously, you'll need to be a good JS hacker to make this work but it can be done.
