So you just built up rules in ~/.claws-mail/matcherc using content cut and
pasted from ~/.kde4/share/config/kmailrc ?
Thanks for the pointer, I'll start on it asap as Kmail is the last prog that
keeps me tied to the now (IMOHO) bloatware KDE has become.
To save time and help me study the syntax of the filter rules, would you be
kind enough to mail me off-list a copy of your matcherc file ?
TIA,
Ron.
