Re: [Nmh-workers] Alternate-Mailboxes: failure

Alternate-Mailboxes: rader, rader@hep.wisc.edu, rader@physics.wisc.edu,
rader@hep.physics.wisc.edu

yet msgs...

cc: rader@hep.physics.wisc.edu, rader@hep.wisc.edu

...get delivered to me in duplicate.

Get _delivered_ to you in duplicate?  You mean when you cc yourself?  I'd
tell you to use Fcc, but I don't want to open that can of worms again :-)

...nasty, vicious worms?


send and friends don't use Alternate-Mailboxes; that's just for repl and 
scan.
The man page for mh-profile explains how this works.

Ahh.  I've been duped into thinking Alternate-Mailboxes works at send time
becuase Sendmail sometimes prevents me from receiving multiple copies of msgs
with multiple (unique) addresses which funnel into my inbox.

I suppose some procmail-fu is in order.


Wouldn't it be nice to be able to use globs?!?

.... see the above paragraph :-)  (They aren't technically globs, but I think
it would suffice for your needs).

Yes, rader@* seems quite reasonable.  I think that's what I used back when
I read the doc in 2001, 2002ish.


Apologies everyone, for not having reviewed the man page before complaining.
