Yes, it sure does! Had no idea. > > However I'm used to saving messages as a plain text that I can name > > and put into a default directory, > > Why would you do that? Good question. Perhaps if I try an answer, you might tell me I'm just making things unecessarly difficult for myself. Keep in mind I still have habits left over from VAX and DOS. I use email primarily to obtain text and documents from one source that I store in a very large and complex directory tree (perhaps several thousand directories) by using a file manager to move them where they are dumpted to their ultimate location. These documents need a unique name to identify their location for sorting, to give some idea of their content, and a date (other than the date the file created). > What are you trying to accomplish by saving messages as text files? > And why are you trying to tell mutt to save them all with the same > name? Actually, I may simply be confused The "s" command prompts me for a mailbox: "Save to mailbox=<name of sender>. However, I find this does not create a folder <name of sender>, but instead a file with that name. So I may not have a problem after all. My original question was how to handle mail from one server with rmail and mail from another with mutt, and I gather procmail is my friend here. Haines Brown
