Well, not directly cut/pasted from one to the other, as the context below seems to indicate you understand, but that's the general idea, yes. > 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 ? Actually, a sanitized basic formatting reference copy for myself as well as helping others is an extremely good idea. Thanks! Let me see what I can do, hopefully tonite. But just letting you know, I've some real world stuff (like a computer that's not entirely stable at my preferred summer room temp, 28C/82F, upgrade needed but no money) going on, so if you don't see anything for a week or so, please remind me, and it's possible (tho not likely, I have a netbook as backup) I'll actually end up off the net for awhile. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
