When I have a question, you guy often reply with a link that contains

keywords to search the procmail archieve to get the link?

Sadly the link on the procmail home page that points to a searchable
archive of the mailing lists doesn't seem to work.  However, after a bit
of google'ing I did find:

http://marc.info/?l=procmail&r=1&w=2

I want to write a script to just move the email that is older than 3
days to somewhere else and I guess such simple question must have been
asked before but I just dont know how to find the examples.

If the only criteria is that the messages are older than 3 days, then
why not use archivemail?

http://archivemail.sourceforge.net/

It can delete messages or move them to an "archive", all based on how
old they are.  I use it myself and run it from cron once a day to clean
out/archive various mail folders.


Cheers,
