Hi Folks,

I notice that SeaMonkey and firefox will sync bookmarks and passwords,
but not mail filtering rules.  At least, not with a standard setup.

Anybody know an easy way to transfer mail filtering rules from one
machine to another (it's getting kind of annoying to travel with one
laptop, while all my mail filtering rules sit, unexecuted, on the one I
leave behind).

Thanks,

Miles Fidelman

The filters are in the email account folders in files called:
msgFilterRules.dat

Simply copy those from one machine to the other.  Unless you're changing
them a lot this should be a one-time thing.

And if you can't assume that the mail folder structure (including accounts) on the target computer is the same, you should review the rules on the target computer to be sure they point to valid folders.

Lucky for me, the folders are all IMAP - so it's easy. Most of the filtering gets done on the server-side w/ procmail rules - some remaining stuff gets done on the desktop!

Thanks guys!

Miles
