On 06-01 I sent this to the <imapfilter-devel@lists.hellug.gr> mailing list
and got no response… perhaps someone here can help me.


I would like to deliver a group of messages locally and delete them
individually. I do not want to delete them after they all have been
delivered because then duplicates will be downloaded if it is interrupted.

What should I use after the pipe_to line?

Thanks


results = myaccount.INBOX:select_all()
for _, mesg in ipairs(results) do
mbox, uid = unpack(mesg)
text = mbox[uid]:fetch_message()
if (pipe_to('/usr/sbin/sendmail user', text) == 0) then
mesg:delete_messages()
end
end

Fetchmail can probably do what you want.

Thanks, but I am downloading *selections* of messages from IMAP folders, as
well as some other things, so I need to use imapfilter.
