Enum MailboxMutationOrigin

Namespace

MailFathom.Domain.Mutations

Assembly

MailFathom.Domain.dll

Names what kind of act asked for a mutation.

public enum MailboxMutationOrigin

Fields

Classification = 2

A spam classification reached a verdict the operator asked to be acted on.

It is a third kind rather than a rule with a reserved name, because neither of the other two describes it: nothing was authored, so it is not a rule, and nobody was present, so it is not a command. An operator reading a stuck mutation of this kind looks at the classification section rather than at a rule they wrote.

Command = 1

Somebody asked for the mutation directly, through a tool call or an administrative command.

Rule = 0

A rule matched an email and asked for the mutation without anybody present.

Remarks

The three differ in what makes a request the same request. A rule asks on its own, repeatedly, so its identity has to survive the run it was evaluated in and change when the rule itself changes; an invocation asks once, so its identity is the invocation; a classification asks on its own and repeatedly like a rule, but nobody authored it, so what stands in for the rule's name is the profile the verdict was decided under. Keeping the kind beside the identity is what lets an operator read a stuck mutation and know whether to look at a rule, at a scanner, or at something they did.
