Hi, guys and gals, I was hoping to find some help.  Does anyone know
how to use PINE (if it can be used) to filter incoming mail?  I've been
recieving a lot of scam mail from the good old folks at interramp and
AOL, and I would like to put up some sort of filtering system.
So if any of you know how, please drop me a line at:
[email-masked]
Thanks for the help!
-Mike

PINE is only a mail user agent. It doesn't provide any facilities to
filter incoming mail. On UNIX platforms, try man procmail and man filter.
The latter comes with the ELM distribution.

  It may be the case that Michael's News server doesn't carry all the
articles in Usenet (this phenomenon is common), or Paul's article arrived
late at Michael's News server.
