I took my chance for a switch to maildrop as I installed my new personal workstation from scratch. In less than an hour I reimplemented my former procmail-functionality and even extended it to automagically create the maildir-folders for freebsd-related mailinglists as soon as the first message from a mailinglist (I wasn't subscribed to) before arrives. -Andreas -- : Anti-Spam Petition: http://www.politik-digital.de/spam/ : : PGP-Key: http://www.tse-online.de/~ab/public-key : : Key fingerprint: 12 13 EF BC 22 DD F4 B6 3C 25 C9 06 DC D3 45 9B : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
