To turn off the AutoRaise feature, put the following in your .Xdefaults file :
Mwm.keyboardFocusPolicy: pointer Mwm.focusAutoRaise: False Mwm*startupKeyFocus: True Mwm.autoKeyFocus: True
To have all email from fred@somewhere.com filed in a folder named fred, first create the folder fred with vmail3. Then put the following in your ~/.procmailrc file :
# Please check if all the paths in PATH are reachable # and remove the ones that are not. PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/local/bin:. MAILDIR=$HOME/Messages LOGFILE=$HOME/.proclog LOCKFILE=$HOME/.lockmail :0 * ^From.*fred@somewhere.com fred
Please see the man pages for procmailex (5) for other examples.
The second method involves setting up a filter in vmail3. Look in the Folder / News Management... menu for the Filter Messages item. This will allow you to build filters that you can save and run manually. By modifying your System Mailbox, you can also add a filter to be run when the New Mail button is pushed.
