Remove Labels from Emails

[elie222]

Currently, the LABEL action in rules can only add labels to emails. There's no way to remove existing labels. This limits the ability to move emails between different label-based categories.

Current Behavior

• LABEL action: Can only add labels
• No action available to remove labels
• Users cannot "move" emails by changing their labels

Proposed Solution

Add a new action to support removing labels

Use Case

Users want to move emails between different label categories (e.g., from "To Review" to "Processed") by removing one label and adding another.
