I would like to have a carbon copies of all e-mails posted
to certain threads or as replies to my emails posted into
mailing list, sent to my inbox as well.
[To which someone replied:]
man procmailex
search for "copy"
Actually the main question is how to track if the message
belongs to thread, I thought in this way:
When some message arrives to mailing list and it's from address
matches my address, I extract the Message-ID from the message
and remember it somewhere
May I humbly suggest it would be useful to ask what you want
to know the first time, and not some other question? :-)
Okay, really, looks like I messed with explanations :)
Just thinking your question to yourself while asking a different
one is not all that likely to result in useful answers.
Let's think in this way:
I want to IDENTIFY a message belongs to some thread of messages I am
interested in watching, and if the message belongs to the thread - I want to
COPY it into my mailbox. With copying I was answered the question (thanks to
Patrick Shanahan!), but now I'm concerned of that "identifying" task.
Now thank you for pointing me to the -D option of formail, I assume my rules
for procmailrc should look like this:
:0 Wh : /var/tmp/procmail.lock
* ^From:.*my.local.mail
* ^To:.*some.mailing.list
| formail -D 10240 $HOME/msgid.cache
but now I need to check any of e-mail posted to anybody to mailings lists I
subscribed to, for In-reply-to: header
And I'm a bit lost at this point, what and how should I invoke for examining
the header against mailid cache file.
Probably it should like this:
:0 Wh : /var/tmp/procmail.lock
* ^To:.*some.mailing.list
* ? formail -x In-reply-to | xargs -ILINE grep $HOME/msgid.cache "LINE"
$HOME/Maildir/Inbox
but it's still unclear is it possible to pass headers in rules and how to
add msgid of the current e-mail passed the conditions to $HOME/msgid.cache
Thank you in advance!
