-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On Sunday, June 15 at 10:10 PM, quoth Don Raikes: I have a .fetchmailrc file setup, and can use it if it is the most efficient method. I also have the pop_host setup in my .muttrc file so I can use the ctrl+g to retrieve my email. You can still use mutt to trigger fetchmail, and you can still use ctrl+g to trigger it. For example: macro index \cg 'shell-escapefetchmail -senter' The advantage is that fetchmail can feed each message to an MDA (like procmail) whereas mutt can't (because it's doing all the delivery itself). The disadvantage is that you have to use a separate program, and it's slightly less obvious. Kyle, It actually helps a lot. I will look into maildrop and see how that works.

Re: newbie: filtering email
On 15 Jun 2008 22:10 -0700, by [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Don Raikes): No I pull my messages down to my local system using pop. I have a .fetchmailrc file setup, and can use it if it is the most efficient method. I also have the pop_host setup in my .muttrc file so I can use the ctrl+g to retrieve my email. This is easy to do. Just set mda to procmail in your .fetchmailrc. For example, mine is (save for a lot of other things that are irrelevant in this case): ** cut ** defaults fetchall mda /usr/bin/procmail -d locallogin poll remoteserver with proto pop3, tracepolls: user remotelogin password remotepassword ** cut ** Then, create your ~/.procmailrc. While experimenting you may want to keep this recipe at the very top: ** cut ** :0cw $DEFAULT ** cut ** This will ensure that a copy (`c' flag) of each message is always written to your inbox. The `w' flag tells procmail to check to see if the delivery succeeded before continuing. You can also replace $DEFAULT above with an explicit path, for example `/home/don/mail.copy'. -- Michael Kjörling .. [EMAIL PROTECTED] .. http://michael.kjorling.se * .

Interesting. Try deconstructing it, to see what's breaking the match.

Have you tried something like the following format: (%?l?%4l%4c?) This will display the line number if available otherwise it will print the byte size. regards, Christian
