Actually, I think Michelle may be correct, but I haven't tested the recipes posted by Michelle.
I wasn't objecting to the underlying concept, just to the Rube-Golbergesque set of unnecessary pipes and shell calls to perform that concept. Most of it can be done in procmail without much trouble, I think.
Okay. After a lot of head scratching I came up with the following. It _is_ tested and appears to work fine. My value of fine includes: Mutt 1.5.16, FreeBSD 6STABLE, procmail v3.22 and setting SHELL to /bin/sh in my procmailrc file (my login shell is zsh 4.3.4, but I prefer to use the FreeBSD Bourne shell derivate with procmail).
:0 * some-regexp { TRAP='mv ${LASTFOLDER} ${LASTFOLDER%%new/*}cur/${LASTFOLDER##*/}:2,S'
:0 some-folder/ }
Is that what you were alluding to?
That is very good, and I had also thought of that in answer to the OP whom I sort of lambasted last week. (Btw, my goal was not to drive him away. I apologize if that was the result.) I was going to show a shell-only manner of getting his var as well as the sed, awk, and cut versions I did show, but I ran out of time. -- dman
