Wonder if procmail or heirloom-mailx can be of some help to you. I have
used the former to do stuff on my incoming mail and the latter to send
out mail based on some conditions on my machine. Do not much about
internal working of mail protocol, so just wanted to throw this out there.

Please reply to this list only. I read this list on its corresponding

filtered to a folder in my mailbox and get periodically deleted without
ever having been read.

Hi Joel,

I have been searching for some time. And i decided to use postfix.
It is great if you can show me your code. If possible your configuration too.

Thank a lot.
