So I need a WORKING email agent, with or without fetchmail & procmail.
And it looks like after 20 years, I am going to have to learn how to
use a brand new to me emailer. Neither mutt, nor alpine, has docs for
a beginner that aren't buried 2+ more directories deep in
/usr/share/doc.
No man pages...
So at this point I guessing that I need a fetchmail/procmail front
end as I don't find any references to account setups for either one.
Is my macular degeneration of my 88 yo eyes hiding that from me?
You might look at Claws-mail. I've no idea of the extent of the
documentation, as I moved to it from TB and never needed documents.
I confirm that filtering certainly works, as I use it with a newsgroup
that is unusable unless about forty names/subjects are dumped.
It has bugs, and is no use if you use testing, as it has (temporarily, I
hope) been removed from there. So I'm not using testing until it comes
back.
