Yes, this is my current work flow. In mutt I set "my_hdr From: m...@email" and in gmail I remove the envelope rewriting (somewhere in the options). -- Nicolas Sebrecht

Instead of basing the filter rules against the "List-Id" field, imapfilter can easily parse both the Cc: and To: headers (contain_cc() and contain_to()) and copy the mails to the good folder (copy_messages()). I expect it should work but as the folders are labels at Google, I can't say. I didn't tested and probably won't because I've already switched to gmx. -- Nicolas Sebrecht

mailing lists and gmail with mutt
Hi folks! (My question is not purely mutt related. I'm posting here because I think here is where I can have the best answers). Recently, I moved one of my email address to gmail. The problem is that Google thinks it's a good idea to not show what _they_ consider to be duplicated mails. I have one folder per mailing list. When I send/receive emails to a mailing list, I expect to have a copy into my INBOX and another copy into the dedicated folder (e.g. the sender did To: list-address Cc: me ) Also, I'm filtering emails with imapfilter. The rules are based on fields like "List-Id". What's happening quite often is that when somebody answers (both to a mailing list and me), the first message I receive is that which addressed to me. As the second mail is not downloaded, it breaks the threads in the folder of the mailing list. Is there a way to tell Google to NOT do what _they_ think is the best for me? Or maybe I missed a mutt configuration option? My web researchs didn't help me. Thanks, -- Nicolas Sebrecht

Hmm, it would not be a good idea as it's the way to go to the parent directory. -- Nicolas Sebrecht

Then, you should open a bug. I didn't try to subscribe but the website says "you can subscribe here...". Maybe there's something wrong with the mailing list. If it doesn't exist anymore, the website should be updated. > Thanks for the response.

Also, you can open a bug to explain your problem and ask for a step by step proccess to know how give more relevant information.

I have those lines in my muttrc :
macro pager "\Cxs" "bogofilter -s && echo \"Mail registered as
spam.\"" "Mail registered as spam"
macro index "\Cxs" "bogofilter -s && echo \"Mail registered as
spam.\"" "Mail registered as spam"
macro pager "\Cxus" "bogofilter -Sn && echo \"Mail unregistered
as spam.\"" "Mail unregistered as spam"
macro index "\Cxus" "bogofilter -Sn && echo \"Mail unregistered
as spam.\"" "Mail unregistered as spam"
macro pager "\Cxg" "bogofilter -n && echo \"Mail registered as
good.\"" "Mail registered as good"
macro index "\Cxg" "bogofilter -n && echo \"Mail registered as
good.\"" "Mail registered as good"
macro pager "\Cxug" "bogofilter -Ns && echo \"Mail unregistered
as good.\"" "Mail unregistered as good"
macro index "\Cxug" "bogofilter -Ns && echo \"Mail unregistered
as good.\"" "Mail unregistered as good"
macro pager "\Cxt" "bogofilter -t" "Check"
macro index "\Cxt" "bogofilter -t" "Check"
For instance, I can tell bogofilter "this mail is a spam" by pressing :
Ctrl+x then the 's' key.
As I use a maildir, I also wrote a little wrapper of bogofilter :
$ cat bin/bogofilter-wrapper.sh
#!/bin/sh
mailbox="$1"
spambox="$2"
[[ ! -z "$2" ]] && spambox='[Gmail].Spam'
src="/home/nicolas/Mail/${mailbox}/INBOX/new/"
dest="/home/nicolas/Mail/${mailbox}/${spambox}/new/"
echo "Looking for spam."
spam=0
for mail in $(find "${src}" -type f) ; do
bogofilter -I "${mail}" && {
echo "Spam found : $mail"
spam=$((spam+1))
mv "$mail" "$dest"
}
total=$((total+1))
done
echo "Total spam found : $spam/$total"
#EOF-
I call this script like this from mutt :
macro pager "\Cwf" "bogofilter-wrapper.sh
'nicolas_MAILBOX_gmail.com' '[Gmail].Spam'" "Filter mails"
macro index "\Cwf" "bogofilter-wrapper.sh
'nicolas_MAILBOX_gmail.com' '[Gmail].Spam'" "Filter mails"
