Re: How to filter this list?
Hello, I am interrested in filtering the incoming mail. On my opinion, my situation is quite different from the explained in this thread. I am the administrator of a PC K6-3 400MHz running Debian Linux. I use a mail server (mercurio.des.fi.udc.es) to send and receive mails. [mercurio:/home/des/becarios/arenaz]$ uname -a SunOS mercurio 5.7 Generic sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCclassic My question is: What do I need in order to filter the incomming mail received in the server? Can I manage using elm? I am currently using netscape messenger to filter the mail, but, first, I have to download the mail to my machine and, second, perform the filtering action by hand. You can imagine that this a tedious and embarrasing task. I would be very grateful if you could help me. Thanks in advance, Manuel Arenaz
