Why don't you just have mutt read mail from the imap server? That's what I do. Check the docs on the following configs: set folder set spoolfile set imap_user set imap_pass set imap_home_namespace set realname My folder and spoolfile configs are set like this: imaps://user@domain.org/INBOX For nonsecure IMAP, that would be imap://user@domain.org/INBOX Lou On 03/22/04 07:15 PM, Trey Sizemore sat at the `puter and typed: > I've got a question...is it possible to retrieve mail from an IMAP > server (fetchmail or like) pass to procmail for filtering, then to mutt > (leaving messages on the server)?
