As we've seen, there's no official way. I am interested in Nicolas's patch, though. Since you've already stated that you consider your mailboxes in two different sets, what about just separating them into two different directories or with two different prefixes? You could then specify an initial pattern and see only the pertinent half. For instance, I (for historical reasons :-) dump all of my incoming mail into =F.* and could simply change some names to =F.music-* and =F.work-* and go from there. Since the folders are all under $HOME/Mail, however, I could also create $HOME/Mail/F.music and $HOME/Mail/F.work and have procmail write to folders in there -- or not even bother to change my filtering config but instead simply cd $HOME/Mail mv F.music1 F.music ln -s F.music/F.music1 and let procmail hit the symlink. [In fact, this is what I have done for some work-related folders that go under =D.work/*, as outlined some time ago on the list, and even for my KotLBJL and other alternate-identity mail. To wit: [zero] [7:05am] ~/Mail> ls -lFd F* | grep -- '->.*/' | cut -c47- F.bb -> D.work/F.bb F.bulbs -> ../Hosting/bulbs.justpickone.org/Mailbox F.mgm -> /home/mgm/Hosting/www.milliongunmarch.org/Mailbox There was quite a thread on mail folder organization a while back; that might provide some interesting ideas.
