- I use a mail reader called "mm". Version 0.90.2(1).
-
- 1. Is this the right group to ask questions about it.
-
- 2. Say I get 20 pieces of mail. 10 are requests for a file,
- and all ten mention the file name in the subject. Is there
- a way I can save the addresses of the ones that mention the
- file name to a file called request, so I can later send them
- the file using @request as my address. I want to overwrite
- any file name request that's in the way. The addresses have
- to have commas between them.
-
- 3. Is there a way (using mm and standard utilities), to send
- mail to all addresses that are in one file that aren't in another
- file? What I am getting at is distributing diffs and updates.
-
- If the answer to these questions is "no", could you e-mail
- me so I'll know? If it is possible, posting here (or whatever
- you think the appropriate group is) is fine.
-
- Thank you
