Even better: http://www.procmail.org/era/lists.html
If we discussed everything that works with mutt on the mutt-users
list, any mention of mutt itself would be difficult to find. That
would be unfortunate.
I apologize if I've done anything to encourage that (and I likely
have; stopping now).
Have a lovely weekend! :-)

Too many questions. I used fetchmail to pop mails before. It

all your mail will be left on the server. Delete the keep from your

Another question: How does mutt call procmail to sort mails ? In
mutt doesn't call procmail. They're separate processes. In my case
(before), fetchmail pops from my ISP's Smarthost, that hands it to local
Mail Delivery Agent (procmail), and mutt picks it up from there once
it's delivered into ~mail.

OK!

Did you try it? If not, why? You're not doing your homework.
Specifically:
VERBOSE=yes
in your .procmailrc, then tail -N $your_procmail_log_file where N

Even with that, some things specific required intervention. Some lists have

In general though, I just cut back on most of the mailing lists that I was on
(as I rarely read them all). Now everything just hits my inbox.
Note: This setup is stupidly complex, but it should give you some ideas of what
you can do and some of the general header patterns that some mailing list
software follows. I also clipped out some of the mailing list cleanup recipes I
had (i.e. removing [LIST-NAME] from the subject; compressing strands of Re:s
down to a single one; etc).
