Mailagent allows you to process your mail automatically. Given a set
|
|
|
|
|
of lex-like rules, you are able to fill mails to specific folders,
|
|
|
|
|
forward messages to a third person, pipe a message to a command or
|
|
|
|
|
even post the message to a newsgroup. It is also possible to process
|
|
|
|
|
messages containing some commands. The mailagent is not usually
|
|
|
|
|
invoked manually but is rather called via the filter program, which is
|
|
|
|
|
in turn invoked by sendmail.

Most portion of this package is written in Perl and version 5.01M or
|
|
|
|
|
higher is known to work nicely.

You are advised to setup the path variable in your mailagent configuration
|
|
|
|
|
to include the directory containing perl5 before /usr/bin to avoid getting
|
|
|
|
|
a lot of warning message although they are harmless.
