Thanks Dsr Do you have any guides ?
What im hearing you say is that yes gmail can create and do its own filtering ie.. i have folders from gmail (e.g Debian_User Debian_kernel) What your saying is that i download the mail from gmail .. once downloaded i add the mail to the folders or filter it in a certin way in mutt so it can go to those folders ? What i don't understand or if you can help me clarify .. if the folders are made from gmail how can mutt put the mail in those foldrs .. I don't think i understand the reply if so please clarify in more detail Thanks Josef On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 02:28:59PM -0400, Dan Ritter wrote: > On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 11:19:05AM -0700, Josef Bailey wrote: > > Thanks for the reply > > > > So yes .. im using gmail and its an imap account > > You can use mutt as an IMAP client, in which case you need a > constant connection to gmail, but gmail does the filtering. > > If that's the case, you just need to tell mutt about the folders > that gmail has set up with settings in your .muttrc for spool, > inbox and mailboxes. > > or... > > you can use some other program to pull the IMAP mail down to > your local box, and then use mutt as a mailspool client, with no > further gmail connection needed until you send email. > > In that case, you need to write appropriate filters. > > -dsr- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
