Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hello all,
I've switched from using imap to fetchmail + Maildir + maildrop. Now I
have a few questions:
- I have accidentally downloaded a bunch of messages
twice with fetchmail. Is there any way to remove duplicate messages?
- When I press 'C' to switch mailbox and press ? to get a list of
mailboxes, I get only two dots and when I select this, I go back to my
previously selected mailbox. If I chdir to ~/Maildir, all mailboxes
show up; is there any way to make mutt go to this directory whenever I
press '?' for a list of mailboxes?
- Not really mutt-related, but maybe someone knows the answer anyway: is
there any way to tell maildrop to make maildir mailboxes if they don't
exist yet, or do I have to do 'makemaildir' every time I add a rule in my
.maildropfilter?
Thanks,
roel
I use the following in my .mailfilter to remove duplicates and it seems
to work fine for me:
`reformail -D 8000 .duplicate.cache`
if ( $RETURNCODE == 0 )
{
exit
}

Re: Nuking duplicate messages (from Telsa's .procmailrc)
# Nuke duplicate messages :0 Wh: msgid.lock | $FORMAIL -D 8192 msgid.cache This recipe should not be used. It can cause mail loss. Read the _complete_ example in the procmailex man page. Now, this works nicely most of the time but I find that about 50% of postings from mutt-users are coming directly from the authors rather than from the list. I suspect that this is to do with how long the list takes to turn around a message and so I'm receiving the post from the author before I get it from the list. Anyone come across this problem before (I know it's more procmail related than mutt related but us mutterers should be familiar with procmail too! :-). I have no good solution for this. I'm saving duplicates to a folder, and I check the headers to decide which copy to delete. Anyway, shouldn't all of us be using the "L" key to reply to the list rather than reply to all, thereby eliminating this problem in the first place??!! Some people apparently use "g". Even if you specifically say "Please don't carbon copy on replies."

Actually, you're much more likely to get the copy sent to you directly first, before the list copy. This is because the list server, even if it's quick, can't hope to send the few hundred (or thousand) copies of emails to everyone faster than a single email gets to you. Anyone come across this problem before (I know it's more procmail related than mutt related but us mutterers should be familiar with procmail too! :-). Yes, I've run into this problem too.

Anyway, shouldn't all of us be using the "L" key to reply to the list rather than reply to all, thereby eliminating this problem in the first place??!! Well, in fact everyone should be using Mutt, with $followup_to set, $honor_followup_to set to "yes", and then it doesn't matter whether the person doing a reply uses L or g...

How to deal with duplicate messages
Hi! I find myself lately receiving some duplicated messages, and I was wondering if mutt could handle them (i.e., save the dupes to another folder or simply delete them) by itself or I need some external script/program :-m I think I could do some Perl script for this, but first I'd like to know if there's already something like that :-) I think this' something that has been discussed before in the list, so a accurate redirection to the list archives would be useful too :-) Thanks in advance :-) -- Roberto Suarez Soto | Wrap the Net mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Around every brain in the Planet, Corgo - Lugo - Galicia - Spain |And Software will flow in the wires.
[OFFTOPIC] not seeing duplicate messages
Hi, folks --
After the first few messages about duplication started going back and
forth, I wondered why I was having such an easy time of things. Then I
realized that my message count from procmail *was* going up (I created
a little alias to grep Folder in my log file and count up the total
with awk) even though I wasn't seeing the dupes -- and I remembered my
formail duplicate suppression recipe, blatantly stolen from somewhere.
For those interested, here it is:
:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| $FORMAIL -D 8192 $HOME/.procmail/msgid.cache
I put it right in my first recipe subfile, right before I make a
backup of the incoming message (I figure that I don't need to back it
up if I really have seen it already). Heck, for that matter, here is
the alias, too:
egrep Folder $HOME/.procmail/.mail.log | \
awk 'BEGIN {s=0} {s+=1;print "\$1","\$2"} END {print s}' | \
sort -u
Hope this is of some interest to folks... Again and again, no doubt ;-)
:-D
