I currently have my mail delivered to my desktop system using SMTP as the system is on all the time and has a static IP.
However I always get paranoid when I reconfigure it and/or do other maintenance so I'm considering moving back to a fetchmail/getmail based system. I also have a fairly complex mail filtering script I wrote myself in Python which is fed mail via .forward. What's the current "state of the art" way to collect mail and deliver it through a filtering system to mutt? If I can do this all in one program than so much the better but I'm happy with two programs if that would work better. I can stay with my existing filter system but, again, if I can consolidate things into one, easier to maintain, chunk then I'd be happy. I *don't* like procmail configuration files, they're one of the reasons I wrote my own. What does everyone else here do for collecting mail and filtering mail with mutt? -- Chris Green
