Hi folks!
In the never ending quest for perfect mail handling, I banged out the
following recipe:
---<snip>
:0c
*^From:hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com
Make this
*^From: hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com
or
*^From:(_dot_)*hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com
The latter will catch both
From: hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com (Hans-Dieter Skin)
and
From: Hans-Dieter Skin <hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com>
and should be preferred.

and thought it was just nifty. I've made a mistake somewhere in that
recipe, and can't find it. I *think* my mistake is not leaving a space
between the colon after "From" and the sender's email address, but would
appreciate a confirmation that this mail is staying in my inbox and not
going anywahere for *that* reason.
The above mentioned recipy would only catch mail with beginning like this:
From:hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com
and
From:hdskin(_at_)msn(_dot_)com (Hans-Dieter Skin)
Since there is a space normally, it won't catch your mail normally.

Joey
