Q: Creating rule for Mail to emulate Mailbox App
I'm using Mailbox for iPhone and I love the "snooze" feature: it allows you to snooze a message in the inbox sending it to a "Later" folder and bringing it back to the inbox later (tomorrow, this weekend, next week, etc., you choose).
I'd love to do the same in Apple Mail with flags. If I mark a message with a red flag, I want it to be moved to a "Later" folder, and I want it back to the Inbox 24 hours later. If I do it with green flag, 2 days later, purple 3, etc...
The problem is that Mail rules don't include the flag option as a condition; only as an action. Also there's no way to put a rule temporary (i.e. "if the message is in the folder X for 1 day move it to Inbox) Any way to do this?
