[08-09-04 15:13]: I like KMail, and have had no problems with it. (I'm not doing complicated filters, etc.) And thank heavens it _doesn't_ look like a Microsoft routine! But I can't find a way to implement a feature that Eudora has: a way to automatically copy an attachment on an incoming message to a folder. It would be even cooler if I could specify the filename extension of the incoming attachment and only copy that file to a specified folder. i.e., if the incoming message was a .doc file, it would automatically copy it to the /home/doug/Documents folder.
procmail
man procmail man procmailex man procmailsc man procmailrc
Indeed! As I suspected, it's all been done already. Here are a couple of resources from which one can find all sorts of procmail tutorials, code and recipies: - http://rhols66.adsl.netsonic.fi/era/procmail/links.html - http://www.uwasa.fi/~ts/info/proctips.html Procmail is very ... fancy, and there's a commensurate amount of coverage on the Web.
