- if I put the filter command
-
- "| /usr/local/bin/filter -vo /tmp/bing.filter_errors"
-
- in ~/.forward with
-
- # rule 1
- if (from = "rolf@physics.orst.edu") then savecopy "/usr/people/leibing/Mail/rolf"
-
- in ~/.elm/filter-rules, then filter -S shows
-
- Mail from rolf@physics.orst.edu about ttest
- SAVED in file "/usr/people/leibing/Mail/rolf" AND PUT in mailbox by rule #1
-
- but unfortunately, there is only Mail in the folder /usr/people/leibing/Mail/rolf
- and no mail in the incoming mailbox. Instead there's a new file ~/EMERGENCY_MBOX
-
- What's going wrong?
