Re: From_ line
If you are speaking of the first from line, I believe this is handled by the Mail Delivery Agent, like Sendmail, or Qmail.

Backing up mail, cronjob
I want to backup my mail at the beginning of every month with a cronjob, cataloging it by date and then gzipping.

Procmail vs. Mutt variables
I found this in the procmailex man page:
Store all the messages about meetings in a folder that is
in a directory that changes every month. E.g. if it were
January 1994, the folder would have the name `94-01/meet
ing' and the locallockfile would be `94-01/meeting.lock'.
:0:
* meeting
`date +%y-%m`/meeting
The same as above, but, if the `94-01' directory wouldn't
have existed, it is created automatically:
MONTHFOLDER=`date +%y-%m`
:0 Wic
* ? test ! -d $MONTHFOLDER
| mkdir $MONTHFOLDER
:0:
* meeting
${MONTHFOLDER}/meeting
I know there is something similar in mutt? Suggestions for handling
this are appreciated? I recall trying this with mutt, but it has yet to
work.

| Hi,
| is there a way to mail postponed messages in one shot?

| 2. I quit vi, so I'm back in mutt, who - finally - ask me if I want to mail

| I guess it's a trivial question and I'm sure there is an easier, better way
