I see you're using Kmail, Gene. Can't advise on how to do anything with
that, and don't use my MUA (mutt) to do that job either. Here, it's
procmail which sorts incoming mail into mailboxes, and this is the rule
I use for this list:
OR=2147483647^0 # Max score => immediate success. i.e. OR
:0:
* ^From [email protected]
* $ $OR ^[email protected]
{
SUBJECT=`formail -czX "Subject:" | sed -re "s/Subject:// ; s/
\[Emc-users\]//g"`
:0fhw
| formail -i "Subject: $SUBJECT"
:0:
cnc_linux_u
}
(My unread LinuxCNC mailbox is cnc_linux_u.) The rule is more complex
than for most lists, because it strips any annoying "[Emc-users]" crap
from the subject, if it's there. Here's one I use on clean lists:
:0:
* ^List-Post: <mailto:[email protected]>
| mutt_u
Even these two examples make evident that "From", "To:", or even a
"List-Post:" header can be used for sorting. The top rule is
fault-tolerant, sorting on presence of either of two header matches.
There's a pile of info in "man procmailrc", and nifty explanatory
examples in "man procmailex".
Some initial guff I have is:
# Avoid logging clashes. Separate log records.
MAILDIR=/home/erik/mail # Thanks to Bart Schaefer & Ruud H.G. van Tol:
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/tmp_log.$$ # <- Each process uses a temporary log.
FINAL_LOG=$MAILDIR/log # <- Append here, via TRAP, at process exit:
TRAP='procmail -p DEFAULT=$FINAL_LOG /dev/null < $LOGFILE && rm -f $LOGFILE'
DEFAULT=/var/mail/erik
COMSAT=off
OR=2147483647^0 # Max score => immediate success. i.e. OR
VERBOSE=on
It's handy to have logging on, in case something goes wrong.
