When I scan my mail in a folder, I'd like to see the msot significant part of the address. Is there a way to do this? For example user@host.domain host1!host2!host3!host4!user shows up as: user@host.domain host1!host2!host3!ho (or whatever fits....) when I really would like that second address to show up as ost2!host3!host4!user Thanks Fred

Is there a way to do this? For example At first thought, I tried the following fragment in the file foo via scan -format "`cat foo`" +inbox %(void(type{from}))\ %<(lt 0)\ %(host{from})!%(mbox{from})\ %|\ %<(gt 0)\ %(mbox{from})@%(host{from})\ %|\ %(mbox{from})\ %>\ %> This almost works except %(host{from}) yields the path and %(path{from}) is empty. This is in MH 6.5 with some local modifications. I remember adding %(lt) or %(gt) which was missing, but don't remember which it was. -- ----- gregg.g.wonderly@att.com (AT&T bell laboratories)

Then none of the host stuff works. (Every address is type local, host is empty, mbox is the whole address.) No substring capability, huh? Fred
