Re: Please send email directly to misc@openBSD.org (no cc please)
Hi, I use the Sender: header for filtering. Two lines in .fdm.conf: [...] action obsd maildir %h/Maildir/OpenBSD/%1 [...] match ^Sender:[ \t]*owner-([a-z]*)@openbsd.org in headers action obsd [...] and for replying, i use the list-reply function of mutt. cu Julian On 00:28 Fri 16 Nov , Piet Slaghekke wrote: I like to filter my openBSD emails and the only way I can do it is if everyone send their email with misc@openBSD.org in the To field.

I've been struggling with this as well, and you really can't ask all
those people to comply with your wishes.
You should use a mailfilter, for example like this with maildrop:
R='/home/han/Mail'
# Drop all messages to misc@ in their own specific mailbox.
if (/^Sender:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/)
to $R/openbsd-misc
# You don't want to miss you are CC-ed after all. You just don't # want
them in your maildir.
if ( /^(Cc|To).*(openbsd|misc|tech|bugs|gnats|source-changes)@/)
{
to $R/cc
}
# This line is for all the mail that passed the filter to $R/Maildir
# Han
What about fixing your filter instead? If you use e.g. procmail, you
just need to use the TO spec.

wow. You ask one novice question and you become an expert on mail list
etiquette? You have the nerve to dictate how people help you for free?
You can't imagine how offensive that is.
I've got a really interesting idea for a filter...
