My uncaught spam folders reached the point at which I would normally have exported them to mbox files and fed them to SpamAssassin this morning. I dutifully used Command > Export > Copy to mbox, but I see only zero byte files being created. Is anyone experiencing this problem? -- ![](http://f

[MlMt] Using Rules to trim a Smart mailbox

There are a couple of mailing lists I’m on that I tend to skim, rather than read constantly. The topics are fairly time-sensitive, so I don’t need to keep old messages around. I had set up a Smart Mailbox to filter the messages from my INBOX into a separate folder and created a rule to move me
