The docs state that Pine will support this, by allowing you to define multiple folders for incoming mail, but it won't do the filtering for you. You need to use something like procmail, which is available in .deb format from ftp.debian.org. Procmail is very easy to set up. For example, here's a sample of my .procmailrc, which sends all mail from the Debian mailing list to a special folder: :0: * [EMAIL PROTECTED] ./mail/archive/debianuser :0: * [EMAIL PROTECTED] ./mail/archive/debianuser This procmail "recipe" grabs all messages with the "To: " or "Cc: " header being debian-user@lists.debian.org, and places them in ./mail/archive/debianuser. Pine has been setup so that it treats this file as an incoming mail folder (in addition to the default INBOX). Procmail is powerful, easy to configure, and well documented. When you install it, you'll get the procmail man pages, and other manpages called procmailex, which are examples of procmail recipes. Good luck. noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNWGaEodCcpBjGWoFAQGDOQP/bSitqwWq7j1A7qAPc8H134FKN9iXIK3B xZllDR6YSpDJN88du45TU9vghcQrG5xQVsLWpH5A/UUvYV7vcTwiTA1tcC8Lq4ud LbbhcEKHG5oiB8Ve+5HqDH1IRDCzqeX2InTdVbiUGLmqZP7WO6DkBb0D+xLbqbCi xCz+cRuhcQI= =wGHD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
