mail treatment

[Xavier Cardil]

Hi all, another question:

When I check some user inbox mail, the mail is stored as only 1 file.
That's good because you don't get lots of files, one file per e-mail.
But when it comes to mail treatment, I find it is harder to manage.
I'm trying to find the way to get a message every time it come in,
analyse the subject and the attachments and with that two results do
something, like create another file to send it to a fax send
application. Is there a way to cut the file by mail, or to receive the
messages on different files ?

Thank you.

You are asking on wrong list.
Better ask on eg hackers@ or questions@ next time.
See list remit on http://freebsd.org/

However, Answer/ what I use: /usr/ports/mail/procmail
Which is nmh compatible /usr/ports/mail/nmh
Which is compatible with most MUA Mail User Agents.
Procmail has lots of docu. & some example syntax, but here's
my personal filter syntax for procmail
        http://www.berklix.com/~jhs/dots/.procmailrc
        http://www.berklix.com/~jhs/dots/.procmailrc.lists        # for this list

Cheers,
Julian
