I was successful with this. Later I decided to keep them separate. I can always import them into evolution (applying the filter rules) I am still having some problems getting mutt to work. 1. Periodic checking for pop mail ("fetch-mail") doesn't work in spite of pop_* being set. Should I set spoolfile to pop:// instead ? 2. Specifying filters for incoming mail like "if msg body has text XYZ, then delete the msg" "if msg is from mailing list ABC, move to folder ABC" I'm guessing I need to use "score", but I am not sure how. Thanks, Ashish. -- --------------------------------------------------------------- | The possession of a book becomes a substitute for reading it. | ---------------------------------------------------------------
