The Submailboxes feature currently only works on the “root” of the email and not on any of its parts. In addition to this, identifying attachments is tricky and you cannot just use the MIME type.

But I looked into it and current features are not far from allowing this to work. In the latest upload I've added specifiers to the virtual “Filename” attribute (which I also recently improved). This means, that you can now divide into submailboxes based on “Filename > Extension”.

I've also hardcoded that whenever “Filename” is used in the context of submailboxes then it checks subparts as well. In this particular case, anything else would not make much sense, but it should probably somehow be optional.

It's a somewhat experimental feature and the format string for the mailboxes currently has to be the default value.
