Hi,
you could use:
folder-hook "=lists/mutt" 'push T~r>2w\n\;'
This one _tags_ all messages older than 2 weeks after entering the mutt
folder. The tag-prefix is "pressed" (;), so you could just press s (for
save) and save them to another box.
I am using procmail for incoming mail from the list, so it is easy to
define a save hook (in my case to "=lists/mutt.gz"; with compressed folder
patch -> see http://www.spinnaker.de ) and press "enter".
Unfortunately I havent been able to do complete-automatic-processing, we
had a discussion about "managing folders" a few weeks ago.
Using
folder-hook "=lists/mutt" 'push T~r>2w\n\;s=lists/mutt.gz\n' is not
working correctly.
It is best to save them manually by using the way at the beginning.
Greetings
Dirk
