RE: Re: Help configuring procmail (was: Help configuring fetchmail)
Are you saying that he can't filter on the "To:" field? If he is only subscribed on one address of the two he has talked about, he could scan for kclug@kclug.org in any of the 3 "To:, CC:, BCC:" and then have those dropped in whichever of the folders. I use built-in filters in Thunderbird, but this is what I look for and it works fine. GroupUnwise however, sucks and frequently misses email. It is a very inflexible mail client. Brian Kelsay

Nope, that won't work for KCLUG mail. The "To:" field will not always, in fact hardly ever, have the proper recipient of the email. Hence, Matt's dilemma. You have to look at the crazy headers for KCLUG. I'd say he needs both of the approaches you stated. One filter by list and to by "To:". That *should* get most if not all filtered into his appropriate mailboxes. Now, I have to go to my server and play with some of these rules. ;')

the ^TO_ and ^TO aliases (or whatever you want to call them) are the shortcuts to taking care of To/CC/BCC and also checking the envelope for your address. Very handy. But I thought that B(lind)CC meant that it didn't list your address at all, except on the envelope. I'm not a certified email admin. I just play one at home sometimes. I'd never used GroupUnwise until 2 months ago. It makes me long for MS LookOut. Well atleast GroupUnwise 5.5 makes me want to use LookOut 2003. Or anything. Maybe even a 16-bit copy of Pegasus Mail.

It means your address is not included in the message as sent to other recipients - you receive a unique copy. This means you know you got a message that's a copy, and you may know the primary and CC: addressees, but they don't know you got a copy.

Doesn't it make you quiver with anticipation of what Novell can do for SuSE Linux?
