I'm confused about incremental additions. If I have mboxes:
-rw-r--r-- 1 moseley moseley 24358 Dec 26 13:34 200109
-rw-r--r-- 1 moseley moseley 22480 Dec 26 13:34 200110
-rw-r--r-- 1 moseley moseley 0 Dec 26 13:34 200111
-rw-r--r-- 1 moseley moseley 209617 Dec 26 13:34 200112
Can't I build the archive like:
>cat hmrc
dir = docs-dev
deleted = X-blabla
warn_surpressions = On
>hypermail -c hmrc -p -m 200109
>hypermail -c hmrc -p -m 200110
>hypermail -c hmrc -p -m 200111
>hypermail -c hmrc -p -m 200112
>From man hypermail:
Note: If the mailbox that is being read from is an archive
that new messages are always being added to, don't use the
-u or -x options. Hypermail will then read in all the
messages given it but will only write new messages that
have been appended to the mailbox.
This works:
>cat 200109 200110 200111 200112 | hypermail -c hmrc -p -i
Also, anyone have a procmail (via .forward) recipe to index messages as
they come in? And is it best to use procmail's locking, or hypermail's?
