One facility that kmail seems to be missing, is the ability to send

Not really /dev/null but Trash, but I do this to a couple of folks I
*never* want to see again.
Set up a filter keyed to the 'From' address. In 'Filter Action' box,
click 'More' for an additonal action. First action, 'Mark as' 'Read'.
Second action, 'File into Folder' 'trash'. Make sure the filter is
the first on your list. Bye Bye..
The problem with that is that kmail doesn't empty the trash till you
quit it, which may be 2-3 weeks down the log as I reboot to a new
kernel, currently 2.6.16-rc1. Now if it had a cron interface to make
it dump the trash daily, that would be nice.
Heh, I collect ham and spam "rough counts" by leaving the spams unread
in my spam folder. Then I mark all the "Deleted Items" folder contents
unread and get a ROUGH compare of spam to ham ratios. Then I delete all
the spam and manually empty the deletia. (In OE its right click on the
"Deleted Items" folder and select "Empty....") I do that once a day
before I turn off the monitor for the night.
