so you could create a ruby ( or language of your choice )script along the lines
of
irb(main):030:0> mail = TMail::Mail.load("~/EvolutionFilters.eml")
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::FilePort:/home/rthompso/EvolutionFilters.eml>
bodyport=nil>
irb(main):031:0> puts Time.now
Tue Feb 03 13:06:49 -0500 2009
=> nil
irb(main):032:0> puts mail.date
Tue Feb 03 10:28:16 -0500 2009
=> nil
irb(main):033:0> puts Time.now() - mail.date
9526.120542
=> nil
irb(main):034:0>
and if Time.now() - mail.date > 3600 return some significant integer value (
1-127 ) that the filter will use to set the status of
Deleted.
hmm -- not as time consuming as i though...
#!/usr/bin/ruby
#
require 'tmail'
mail = TMail::Mail.parse($stdin.read)
if Time.now() - mail.date > 3600 then
exit 113
else
exit 0
end
~/EvolutionFilters.eml is your email asking your question....
irb(main):030:0> mail = TMail::Mail.load("~/EvolutionFilters.eml")
=> #<TMail::Mail port=#<TMail::FilePort:/home/rthompso/EvolutionFilters.eml>
bodyport=nil>
irb(main):031:0> puts Time.now
Tue Feb 03 13:06:49 -0500 2009
=> nil
irb(main):032:0> puts mail.date
Tue Feb 03 10:28:16 -0500 2009
=> nil
irb(main):033:0> puts Time.now() - mail.date
9526.120542
=> nil
irb(main):034:0> puts mail.from
[email protected]
=> nil
irb(main):035:0> puts mail.subject
[Evolution] Filters
=> nil
irb(main):036:0> puts mail.body
I get hundreds of emails a day and when list users who don't know how to
set the clock on their computers, I get new messages buried deep in my
list of messages and have to page through to find them.
I would rather not even see them.
Is there anyway I can filer messages that arrive on my computer so they
auto-delete if over an hour old?
