Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I got tired to search manpages and archives - in fact I've seldom found anything useful in the archives... I'm using a rude way to move my mail from folder to another: Using xfmail, I have several mbox folders where my mail arrives (with procmail) After I've read the messages, I push the print button, where I've put a shellscript to move my mail to a subdir "old" to corresponding folders: 'stable' to 'old/stable' and so on. However, sometimes, actually quite often, those messages that I move, are not marked as read. I guess it's because xfmail never gets a chance to do this. Now I'd like to know how to mark those messages in a for example 'old/stable' mbox-file as read. I mean with a shell script command, so I could automaticise it. If there is a better way, perhaps a program that would move those mails for me, please point me towards it. (or perhaps another mail reader/editor/program that would provide that function automagically, with as good-looking GUI as xfmail's is) Any pointers to MIME and language settings regarding xfmail are also welcome. I mean URLs and such. CC to me please, I'm not subscribed. @-`--,--`--- Jukka Simila To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
