I had considered suggesting that, but it seems like a lot of work.
Plus, there's that nasty gotcha: you uns*bscribe from a list, and
receive a message from someone who cc:'s you on that list. What
happens? The cache (unless periodically flushed) identifies the
listaddr, and the offlist copy gets trashed.
First step:
LISTCACHE=$HOME/.listposts
ISLISTED=`grep -i "^$LISTNAME" $LISTCACHE`
:0
* ^List-post:[ ](<mailto:)?\/[-(_at_)A-Z0-9_+(_dot_)]+
{
LISTPOST=$MATCH
:0
* ! ISLISTED ?? ^[^ ]+[ ]+\/[^ ]+
{ ADDTOCACHE=`echo "$LISTNAME $LISTPOST" >> $LISTCACHE` }
}
This should look familiar to you as it is a slight modification to your
WHITELIST recipe.
Now I think it's a simple matter (This is not, as yet, tested):
# White space in condition is space, spacetab, spacetab
:0E # Message does not contain a List-Post Header
* LISTNAME ?? ^^^^
* ISLISTED ?? ^[^ ]+[ ]+\/[^ ]+
{ LISTPOST= $MATCH }
:0a:
* ^TO_ ?? $LISTPOST
dupemail
so, if the message doesn't contain have a LISTNAME, but is addressed to
a list that normally has a list-post header, then it is a dupe, right?
Granted, it's not perfect as it doesn't handle the lists without a
List-Post header, but so far, that is a very small subset of my current
lists, so I have high hopes for the functionality of this recipe.
What do you think, sirs?
:0
* LISTNAME ?? ^^^^
* -1
* 1^1 ^TO@
{

| formail -I"Status: RO"
:0:
dupemail
}
Hmm, this looks like it'd catch everything addressed to two or more
addresses, such as personal correspondance between small groups of
people (or heck, even where the sender copies themselves). It'd work
passably well if you're using a list-specific address (which would
need to have been conditioned prior to this individual recipe, since
there's no condition listed here for a given address).
This address is used ONY for subscribing to lists, so it should not (to
my mind) receive any messages that contain more than on email address
in the ^TO_ (either a list or a message directly to me). Still, I
think the above is better, no?
