I don't have an answer for you, but just a follow-on idea. Your approach
sounds very intriguing to me, because I'm hosting a bunch of mailboxes
over IMAP, for a lot of non-technical virtual users.
I would very much like to be able to make a simple web interface
allowing people to specify a folder where they want particular mailling
lists delivered. If I could set up a list like you describe in a MySQL
table, it would be super easy to code a front end for.
For that matter, if it's easier for Maildrop to scan a file, I could
easily set up a cron job that generated such a file for each user.
Anybody have a recipe that can do this sort of thing? I imagine the
stumbling block is identifying what header to filter on, since all the
MLM software seems to have a different set of identifying
characteristics...

Hi,
I am subscribed to quite a few mailing lists and I want to use
Maildrop to sort my mail by list. This seems to be pretty
straightforward using a list of mailbox addresses and lookup().
However, I want to send more than one list to certain mailboxes and I
don't necessarily want to name the mailboxes after the list.
I thought I would create a list of mailbox/list pair like this:
- - - Schnipp - - -
cour...@lists.sourceforge.net ML/Mail
mutt...@mutt.org ML/Mail
post...@postfix.org ML/Mail
disc...@nedit.org ML/NEdit
deve...@nedit.org ML/NEdit
- - - Schnapp - - -
This list would be read by some script which would be fed the mail and
return the mailbox' name to Maildrop.
Before starting that, I would like to ask you whether one of you
already did something similar or whether there is a better approach
using Maildrop. Any hint would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
