I configured Kyle's hook, which does a nice job, and will periodically enter gmail webmail and empty their Sent Mail label in a manual fashion. I can't see how to configure a filter at their site to drop all sent mail. As soon as it arrives the email seems not to be even labeled, so a condition like label:Sent Mail won't match. And afaik you can't schedule a filter to run periodically. Alternatively imapfilter or a combination of offlineimap+procmail could automate the job of removing unneeded sent copies, but I don't thinks it's worth the effort. Any enlightened ideas?
