Let's say I have a message from 'John Smith' which has a subject of 'ftp.?????.??' Is there any way of setting up a filter rule to save this message in a folder of name $subject_string. Example: From John Smith Subject xxxx -----> gets saved to ~/Mail/xxxx From John Smith Subject yyyy -----> gets saved to ~/Mail/yyyy You get the idea... -- Mike Protofanousis msp@pronet.chi.il.us uunet!motcid!protofan

Here's a rule that will do it ... if (from "John Smith") then save <Home-Dir>/Mail/%s Where "<Home-Dir>" is the absolute path of your home directory. There's a whole set of "%" macros available in Filter for using in generating a folder name. Check out the Filter guide for a complete list of these macros. If you want to do more complicated parsing of the Subject or other headers, though, you'll need a more powerful filter like Deliver 2.0.

According to protofan@motcid.UUCP (Mike S. Protofanousis):
>Where can I get Deliver 2.0? Is it public domain?
[ This same info was posted to comp.archives already; whoever's
doing the filtering, you can ignore this article. ]
Deliver 2.0 patchlevel 12 is the current version. I *still* haven't
updated the archive servers with patch 12. If you get patch 11 from
them, let me know and I'll E-Mail patch 12.
It's not PD, but it's freely redistributable.
**FTP: Get Deliver 2.0 PL11 by anonymous FTP from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu.
For those of you without DNS, that's [128.146.8.60]. Here's the relevant
part of the Ohio State archive info:
Deliver 2.0
-----------
Source is Chip Salzenberg <ateng!tct!chip@uunet.uu.net>.
Root is ~/deliver/deliver-2.0-part-[1234].Z [4 parts], varying sizes
less than 25Kbytes each.
Note that "~" is the anonymous FTP "pub" directory. So, after making an
FTP connection as user "anonymous," type the following commands to get
Deliver into the current directory:
binary
cd pub/deliver
get deliver-2.0-part-1.Z deliver.01.Z
get deliver-2.0-part-2.Z deliver.02.Z
get deliver-2.0-part-3.Z deliver.03.Z
get deliver-2.0-part-4.Z deliver.04.Z

Deliver is stored on alfred as four compressed sharchives in the
~/ANON/deliver directory, with a total size of less than 100K.
To get Deliver 2.0 from alfred into the current directory, type:

uucp alfred!~/ANON/deliver/deliver.02.Z .
uucp alfred!~/ANON/deliver/deliver.03.Z .
uucp alfred!~/ANON/deliver/deliver.04.Z .
Note that wildcards ("deliver.??.Z") will *not* work.
