Re: Selective remote mail deletion

Hi again,
does anybody know of a utility/package that would perform what I'm
looking for?
Would like to be able to remotely and selectively delete messages while
they are still on the server without launching the mail client or at
least without fully logging in and downloading all new messages.
Similar to the remote functionality offered by Foxmail on Windows since
many years, and I hear since recently in Outlook as well...
Thanks for any suggestions.
Have a look at imapfilter:
IMAPFilter is a mail filtering utility. It connects to remote mail
servers using the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP), sends
searching queries to the server and processes mailboxes based on the
results. It can be used to delete, copy, move, flag, etc. messages
residing in mailboxes at the same or different mail servers. The 4rev1
and 4 versions of the IMAP protocol are supported.
(copied from http://imapfilter.hellug.gr/)
It is available as a Debian package in Etch and Sid.
Regards,
Florian
