Archived mail

[Rodney Green]

Thank you Vlad. I tried your example and haven't been able to get MS to
write to the archive file. I created the file using touch in the correct
directory. I restarted MS as well. Any ideas what might be wrong?

Thanks,
Rod

I've been at this as well for the past day or so. You can specify a ruleset
instead of a directory in MailScanner.conf like this:

Archive Mail = /etc/MailScanner/rules/archive.rules

Then inside that archive, define the mbox files you want to keep the mail
in, for example:

FromOrTo:   vlad at mazek.com   /var/spool/mail/vladarchive.mbx
FromOrTo:   default   no

This will only archive mails sent to/from me in a separate archive file.
