Re: [SLE] Re: Everlasting email messages

I wondered why I didn't see the hundreds of duplicate messages people were talking about until I checked my log files. Apparently Cyrus, the IMAP server I am using has deleted all the duplicate messages automatically. Pretty cool. Avi --On Wednesday, April 18, 2001 17:37:40 -0700 Mads Martin Jørgensen wrote:

Use the following within your procmailrc file

:0Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 8192 .msgid.cache

which will take care of any duplicate messages that anyone sends. Give you an idea, the above filtered out approximately 170 messages and only put 1 of them within my Inbox.

That is the rule I talked about in another posting. Works really well. It can backup the dupes etc. man procmail{,rc,ex} have more info.
