Hello all. I'm running procmail to sort my incoming mail into different mailboxes (pretty much the standard use for procmail!). I'd like to start archiving mail from these mailboxes after a certain period (perhaps a month). Obviously, I could simply write a cron script to move the whole mailbox file to another location, compress it and touch a new mailbox file with appropriate permissions, but that would be a bit messy - especially if I need to read the messages again. So how can I move messages from one mailbox to another after they've been delivered? I can't see how I could invoke procmail from a cron job to read individual messages in a mailbox to check their received date - am I trying to use the wrong tool? Look forward to your replies. Ed
