- I am considering using MH and I would like to know before if it can do what
- I want. I looked in the FAQ but I couldn't find it.
-
- What I like about elm (and mail in a limited way) is a feature to save
- outgoing mail automatically in a specific folder *dependent on the
- recipient*. Elm can save outgoing mail in the folder with the login name of the
- addressee, if it exists, and if you want to save an incoming message it proposes
- to save it in a folder with the name of the sender. Can MH do something similar
- (alias name would be preferred over login name, by the way)?
-
- If not, I could try to write a script or program that saves the message in a
- folder based on the information in the header lines, since MH seems to offer
- much more access to spearate messages than other mailers do. Is this feasible?
-
- Thank you for your attention,
- Kees
