Hi,

I would like to build an addressbook with all the email addresses in mails
received in my Pine/Procmail config. Any suggestion?

Take a look at Robin Socha's Pine tips:

Scroll down to "The Code". The first script does exactly what you
want.

Hello Pinesters.

I am trying to figure out if there's a way to configure PINE so that when
an incoming mail has a specific header, they can be automatically routed
to a specified folder with the same name.

	(Example, if I were on the 'Bonsai' mailing list, the subject
	might be   Subject: Bonsai: Pruning.  PINE would recognize the
	word 'Bonsai' and put it in the 'Bonsai' folder.)

Any help would be appreciated.  I'm not the highly technical sort, so the
simpler the answers, the better.

Many thanks,
Jenny

Hi, Jenny,
l for folder list
a to create a folder with a name you can remember, associated with the
folder you're try ing to create.
Using a stocks list, for example, maybe you'd want to nickname the folder
"money".

Then, from Pine's main menu, do this:
s for setup
r for rules
f for filters
a to add a filtering rule
Nickname: Type c to change the text, Give it something you can remember,
like if it's a stocks list,
you might call it "stock1" or something like that.
Up to you. Hit return after the folder name.
Arrow down to where it says "subject", and put in the text which uniquely
identifies that mailing list, if it occurs in every message.
If your subjects normally looks like;
"Subject: [Stock-info] Noon Averages
with the bracketed text on every message, just write:
[Stock-info]
in that field.
There's lots of stuff in this screen for tailoring, but if you're just
trying to move the messages from your inbox to the new folder, all you
need do is move to near the bottom (control-w, then control-v will take
you there), and in the line asking for the folder to move to, just type c,
and enter the name of the folder and hit enter.
Type an e to exit, and answer y to confirm your changes when asked,
and the deed should be done.
Next time you enter Pine, any messages from the designated list should be
moved to the specified folder, if everything was done right.
While in a Pine session, you'll get status messages at the bottom of the
screen when new mail comes and is routed to that particular folder.
Hope this helps.

Unfortunately the link to the script doesn't work, at least it didn't seem
to.

Did you read my message? I said scroll down to "The Code". The script
is part of the web-page.
