I was trying to find a way to get TB to work with an external
mail filtering pgm. What I was considering was:
1. External pgm writes a batch file for TB.
2. TB sees this file and executes:
/check dummy (this gets the POP3 mail)
'dummy' filter puts all mail in a Unix file
/export flag file (this tells the external pgm it is done)
3. External pgm process the Unix email file, then
writes another batch file for TB
4. TB sees this file and executes:
/import processed file to 'real' mail account inbox
But - at this point, I can't think of a way to get TB to run the new
mail through the 'real' account filters, and thus sort everything into
the right folders. I'm trying to do this as automatically as possible.
I realize I could repeat the kludge for each folder, but this gets
rrrreeeeeaaallly kludgy :-).
Any way to get TB to run this folder through the filters?
OR - is there a better way to do this? As a beginner, I'm still
learning about TB :-).
Any ideas/solutions much appreciated.
