[comp.emacs] RMAIL digest capability

rob@vixen.tcs.com (Robert Romero) (05/04/91)

I'm a longtime fan of emacs RMAIL, but I've noticed that some of the
browsing and archiving capabilities haven't improved in a while, and
are falling behing those of other mailers.  For example, I subscribe
to mailing lists that trickle in many messages all day long, which of
course is a little bothersome.  I'd like my mailer to automatically
place those messages into a digest file, to be read later.


Is there a feature somewhere to automatically file and delete messages
with a certain "To:" field?  I imagine there's something like
rmail-get-new-mail-hook that would allow one to write this, but it
seems like a tough problem.


Has anyone solved it?
