[PLUG] filtering lists w/ procmail


I was thinking about to to make more people want to be on this list.  And
then thinking about why some people don't want to be.  And I think the
answer to that is filteres -- filtering this list out to its own folder.
I've been doing this for some time.  Wow, it looks like I'm currently on
52 active mailing lists.  Yeah, I need filteres.

I don't claim to fully understand procmail.  I just got it to work once,
and know how to add stuff.  So I want somebody else to try before I go
posting the instructions on the plug web page:


Create a directory ~/.procmail
In that directory, create a file called rc.maillists
In that file, put:

:0:
* ^X-BeenThere:.*plug@lists.nothinbut.net
IN.plug


I think that should do it.  Now everything from the plug list should go in
~/mail/IN.plug.  

I also put my rc.maillists up at http://www.op.net/~darxus/rc.maillists
incase you'd like more examples.

And how do you turn off logging ?
