Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a Nextcloud user, I want to be able to send an email to another user of the same instance and use sensitivity labels to prevent forwarding of an email.

Describe the solution you'd like
  1. Allow attaching sensitivity labels when sending an email
  2. Enforce rights on the receiving side
Describe alternatives you've considered

N/a

Additional context

The server has to limit allowed IPs/clients so Mail is the exclusive client of the server. Sieve must not interfere with rules.
