Subject: Need to leave PINE, Windows Apps using procmail????


      My ISP has all but dropped support for shell mail like PINE. (I
mean sometimes it works and sometimes it don't). They want me to move to
windows application to handle mail.

      I have about 20 procmail recipes sifting different mailing
lists into different PINE mailboxes. Is there anyway to still use this
with a win app. From what I have seen, they only check the INBOX. I am
especially intersted in Email 97.

      Many Thanks for your help...
Hi,
        The solution that I have been given for Eudora so I don't do this is as
follows:
        On Eudora
        Set up filters that look for a header (let's call it X-mailbox) and it
automatically routes the messages to different mailboxes depending on what the
header says.
        In procmail
        Change your procmail recpies to add the header (use the formail -I
option) and to save to the default mailbox.

        Eudora will automatically save to the appropriate mailboxes then.
