The filters are not related to each others, if you pick the text filter and the date one there won't be a cumulative filter effect.
The app saves its configuration and there is a background version that can be scheduled with alarmed to autoremove sms.

Cute. I have no use for this (I use Glogger to archive and keep texts, not delete them ), but I'm glad you made it and hope others find it useful. :)

Now if you made it so this auto-archived the texts (say via Glogger), and then deleted them, that could be useful to me. I could maybe use this after Glogger to delete anything more than a week old? Could you make a time option like that? Relative, like "one week old" vs an exact date? That would rock. :)

Re: [Announce] AutoRemoveSms
 

I can surely add another date filter which has the following options: 1day ago, 1 week ago, 1 month ago, 1 year ago.
But I can't say the same about the autoarchiving, it isn't the purpose of this app, sorry.

nice app for me as i have a bad habit of pranking my mates by flooding them with texts from my n900 by typing the letter a then send then a then send so my mate receives loads of text messages just saying a (i have 3000 texts per month), the only downside was my conversation with that erson would have a massive batch of a's ...... not anymore with'autoremovesms'

cheers dev!!!!

Cool, is it possible to extend it to conversations?

Re: [Announce] AutoRemoveSms
 

If you put just "a" in the line edit and run it, you will delete all the sms having "a" (the most of them imo).

Re: [Announce] AutoRemoveSms
 

Not in this application since it is just for the sms.

I can code another one to include email and IM.

Set this command in Alarmed:

/opt/AutoRemoveSms/AutoRemoveSmsBackground

Let me know it it works as it should.

Re: [Announce] AutoRemoveSms
 

I would like to ask first before going through and test the apps :D

Is this some kind of SMS spam filtering? (Since I see there's a 'daemon' checkbox in there) Or the filtering can only be done "after" the sms has been received, and daemon will only trigger it every some time intervals?
