Hi All. I'm still working on my initial labeling/hooks and best choices thereof.
I'm torn between a few options. i)external file reference (would be my preferred method) -can't list anything other than full email addresses in the file @domain.com, wildcards...etc. would be nice -can't comment in the file. It would be nice to weed out comments -is it possible that when an address has a subdomain the example in the wiki breaks? ie [email protected] none of my hooks for these types of addresses seem to work -is Sup caching the referenced file? if not, I presume this option significantly slows things down ii)not using an external file makes the hook file lengthy. However it seems to be the only safe way of adding multiple labels - which I feel crucial to making a strong searchable system. Perhaps a label(s)-markread-archive would be nice :) -using this method I find myself writing a ton of rules for the same thread. a)label the thread from a particular community/client/area b)label the thread from a particular person within said community/clientel/area c)label it something useful ie (not)important/archive/redirect/bounce(hehe)...etc. I'm assuming my difficulties spring from a few basic assumptions; I can't write any code let alone Ruby, if my life depended on it. The wiki has solid working examples for those who can work with Ruby. Again I don't speak Ruby. And mostly, I come form a world where things get filtered to folders :-( I'm really trying to keep an open mind and I know I'll get there but my inbox now has thousands of mails in it and I'm the type that kept a strict 0 count. In order for me to move to Sup I had to get *real* disorganized before getting *real* organized ;-) All that to say that for types like me, it's all about copying other, less ruby-challenged, peoples work. So for the past three weeks I've been living in the wiki....It's a pretty lonely place out there! In keeping an open mind about all this, I'm open to hearing examples of how others handle there workflow that are achieving the same goal I have in mind. ie label everything with individual labels and archive it all using the least/simplest/most efficient code possible. This way I can search for clients,client A,reports,after:tue-jan-18(I think the latter is prob. wrong but feel like looking up chronic's standards at the moment:-) ) My mail is really important to me so if the only response I get from this is "learn Ruby you lazy-ass-bastard!" I'll get the message(lousy pun eh?) ;-) -- Thanks, Phil _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
