I have several questions about procmail :
In general you may want to send separate messages w/ 1 question each to make
sure that they all get answered... after all, 1 question can start its own
thread
However these were both brief enough to fit in 1...
1. How do I refilter messages which already stored in Mailbox, because at the
moment I received the messages, I haven't applied the procmail rules there.
formail -s procmail -m ~/.procmailrc < yourmailboxhere
make sure you have a COPY of 'yourmailboxhere' stored safely away in case
something goes wrong!
2. How do filter a message based on Sender: ? I have tried to do
* ^TOmailling-list(_at_)domain | ^SENDERmailling-list(_at_)domain
but it doesn work at all to filter based on sender ;(.
Leave off the first part and use the header as it is shown:
* ^Sender:
then use a [ ]
(that's a [ then a 'space' character, then a 'tab' character, then a ])
then use 'mailing-list(_at_)domain'
so put it all together
* ^Sender:[ ]mailinglist(_at_)domain
of course you need the little extras to make a full recipe:
:0:
* ^Sender:[ ]mailinglist(_at_)domain
mailbox1
that will put all the mail from that mailing list into 'mailbox1'
