mutt and mailing lists

[Michael V. De Palatis]

One further question I have that I have not been able to find thus
far in mutt's documentation...

I settled on using imapfilter, because it does what I want it to
(i.e., I can use it to filter my messages on the remote server to
which I lack shell access, and so I don't have to download the
messages). However, I have to manually run it. Is there some sort of
hook in mutt that would allow me to run imapfilter upon finding new
messages in the inbox?

Of course, I could simply have a mail checker such as gnubiff (which
unfortunately I have to use instead of mail-notification due to the,
in my opinion, stupid OpenSSL issues) run imapfilter upon new mail
messages; though my only qualm with this is in the event that the
computer the mail checker is running on loses its network
connection, I'd have an unfiltered inbox.

Thanks,

Mike
