    Time Event
    3:12p
    New mail complaint.
    NSS forwarding doesn't let you:
    • forward to 2 addresses (~/.forward: user@host1, user@host2)
    • store mail on university system but also cc to another address (~/.forward: \localuser, user@host)
    • pipe through program (~/.forward: \localuser, \|/home/localuser/send_sms_to_cell_phone), although, in fairness, i don't think copland ever supported that, since saruman/gandalf/morgoth/radagast don't have user shells

    Blah.

    i've got the mirapoint blues
    There may be a hack to forward mail AND keep it locally. Disable NSS autoforward, and create a filter like this:
    Apply to all incoming messages:
    Move to: Inbox
    Apply to all incoming messages:
    Forward to: os@os.1.vg

    [The order of these two doesn't seem to matter. I have the forward first, and this conditional filter afterward:
    If all of these conditions are met:
    Body: does not contain "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
    Body: does not contain "X-Junkmail-SD-Raw: score=confirmed"
    Then: Move to: Inbox]

    I don't want attachments clogging up my 75MiB limit on copland; I want them on my own mailserver. Blah. I also don't want to run a stupid script to connect to UD every ten minutes because: (1) I'd have to keep a copy of my password in plaintext; (2) I like my mail to be near-instantaneous.

    On a side note, pine seems to be broken, now. The FOLDERS screen won't go to the MAIN MENU, as it should, when < is pressed. M still works, though.

    However, I can't figure out how to add some of my filters to mirapoint. I used to have some age-dependent filters; certain messages older than two weeks would automatically be marked as "read."

    I also can't discern if Mirapoint does automatic renaming of sent-mail and read-mail to -mon-year at the beginning of a new month.
