( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I'm not sure exactly how much this helps you, but Mail::Audit takes its input on STDIN, and the two usual ways for remote clients to talk to mail servers, IMAP and POP3, are represented in CPAN. It shouldn't be difficult to write a Perl script to grab your mail and run it through whatever you please... the difficulty, to my mind, would be getting your mailreader to play nicely with Mail::Audit, which AFAIK only writes to various Unixy formats of mailbox.

Update: You should be able to download a copy of each message via IMAP, filter it through Mail::Audit and/or friends, and based on the results keep it, move it around, or delete it, also via IMAP (or more specifically, via Mail::IMAPClient).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
