Take a look at the sources sometimes when you're in the mood for
a good laugh. :-) I'm actually surprised that so many people have
been using Procmail for so long, and nobody bothered to start a
project for a mail filter on sane basis yet. By that I mean a
"real" replacement for procmail, not a toy like Maildrop.
Okay, I'll bite: what makes you characterize maildrop as a "toy"?
I only played with Maildrop for a short while, but IIRC it didn't
have header rewriting. I might remember wrong, of course.
I just checked, and I found out that Maildrop has a tool called
reformail, which is basically a functional copy of formail. So I'll
have to withdraw the statement about Maildrop --- in fact I think this
might be the sane replacement of Procmail I was asking for.
But I still stand behind the statement WRT Procmail sources. :-)
