How can I safely copy all of a list into another backup
folder?
I've got:
:0: c
* ^List-Id:.*commits
COMMITS
:0:
BACKUP-COMMITS
Not exactly. The second recipe will copy anything and everything
you get to the backup folder, including the cloned copy of the
list mail.
Before we get into that, though, note that you've misplaced the
colon for the lock on the first recipe. It should gou after the `c'.
The cloning part was fine. Now use an `A' flag on the second
recipe to tell it only to go into action if the first recipe
was successful.
From "man procmailrc":
A This recipe will not be executed unless the conditions on the last
preceding recipe (on the current block-nesting level) without the `A'
or `a' flag matched as well. This allows you to chain actions that
depend on a common condition.
So:
:0 c:
* ^List-Id:.*commits
COMMITS
:0 A:
BACKUP-COMMITS
should work.
