Now I wish instead for fetchmail to do that, and to feed its output to procmail, which will perform some filtering operations before making its output available to Kmail
The way procmail does this is to deposit its mail into file(s) in a dedicated directory in the user's home directory tree, and this is where kmail should come to pick it up. My question is about how to configure Kmail to do that, rather than retrieving mail as it does now, directly from remote servers, whether configuring from the Account Settings of Kmail, or from manipulating some configuration file of Kmail.
the easiest way i'm aware of is by running an IMAP server on your box. i'm using dovecot, which is pretty easy to set up. then you connect with kmail to localhost, retrieving the mail via IMAP. there's an extensive thread about this here: [code]http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/applications/447542-need-ma...
