I want to archive my messages to a .tar.gz file once per month (just
appending the info to the end). I cannot use cron jobs, since the
machine is not mine. How can I do this with procmail?
There are versions of 'cron' which let individual users run personal crontabs.
Then there are 'at' commands too... I wrote an 'at' script once that would
reinsert itself after it ran (which gave me the equivolent of a daily 'cron'
job)
I'm sure you could hack a procmail solution, but it would be better to find a
better tool.
