7 B<minc> - incorporate mail from a maildir into mh folders
8

11 B<minc> [B<-m> I<MAX>] [B<-n>]

15 B<minc> B<-r>
16
17 =head1 DESCRIPTION
18
19 B<minc> incorporates mail from a maildir to a mh folder hierarchy. It
20 takes mail from a maildir folder (not a maildir folder hierarchy),
21 running each message through regular expression based filter and hook
22 functions to determine in which folder to store it or whether it's
23 spam. Post-processing hooks may be applied to each message.
24
25 As it processes each message, B<minc> prints a line for each message
26 similar to B<inc(1)> and B<scan(1)>. This line includes the folder
27 and message number in which the message was stored, the last 'From'
28 header, and the last 'Subject' header. These fields are truncated to
29 fit in the user's terminal (see COLUMNS in B<ENVIRONMENT> below) in
30 the following proportions: folder (0.1), message number (0.0625), from
31 header (0.175). Any of these may be overridden with $SCAN_P_FOLDER,
32 $SCAN_P_MESSAGE, or $SCAN_P_FROM. The subject always fills out the
33 rest of the line.

147
148 =item $HOME/.minc
149
150 This file is Perl code (included via the 'require' directive) which
151 may define the FILTERS list, @start_hooks, @filter_hooks,
152 @post_store_hooks, and @stop_hooks.
153
154 =item `mhpath +`/.folders
155
156 B<minc> adds all folders it filters into to this file, which is used
157 by lukem's B<new(1)> (XXX need a link).
158
159 =item `mhpath +`/logs/minc.log
160
161 Where B<minc> logs what it does, unless in -n mode.
162
163 =item `mhpath +`/.minc.context
164
165 B<minc> uses this file for context (i.e. current folder) instead of
166 `mhpath +`/context. This allows you some amount of freedom to use mh
167 while B<minc> is running. For example, you can changed folders without
168 causing a message to be stored in the wrong folder. Care must still
169 be taken, however, about the unseen sequence; if you change it
170 (whether via show, or mark, or anything else) while in the same folder
171 as B<minc>, it is likely the new message B<minc> stores will not end up
172 marked unseen.

810 =head1 THE FILTERS STRUCTURE
811
812 Each element of @FILTERS is a filter. A filter is itself an array.
813 The first element of a filter is a string, the name of the header this
814 filter acts upon. The header name is not case-sensitive. Each
815 subsequent element of a filter is a pair (i.e. a two-element array):
816 first, a regular expression B<minc> uses to determine whether this
817 filter matches or not, and second, an expression which B<minc>
818 evaluates to get the folder name.
819
820 B<minc> decides where to store a message by iterating over the
821 @FILTERS array. It tests each regexp of each filter against all
822 headers matching that filter's specified header. As soon as a match
823 is found, B<minc> evaluates the second part of the pair. This part
824 may contain positional parameters from the matched regexp ($1, $2,
825 etc.). The result of this expression is used as the folder name.
826
827 Multiple occurrences of the same header are preserved and tested
828 individually against the filters. That means, for example, that
829 filters can search all the Received headers for a certain string.
830
831 It is important to note that all the arrays of the @FILTERS structure
832 are traversed I<in order>. This means the filters can be arranged so
833 that some have priority over others. XXX: get Doug to write an
834 example of having the same header matched more than once.
835
836 Lastly, B<minc> supports a magic ' TO' header. Filters using this
837 header are matched against a collection of headers related to (and
838 including) the To. Which headers to use is determined by a regular
839 expression borrowed from procmail.
840
841 =head1 HOOKS
842
843 Filter hooks take a reference to a hash of batons, a reference to a
844 hash of headers, and the message filename as arguments. It returns
845 undef to decline filtering of this message (thus falling back to
846 subsequent filter hooks, and finally @FILTERS), or the name of the
847 folder to store this message into.
848
849 One of B<minc>'s global variables is available to the user-defined
850 hooks: $run. This boolean should be honored; hooks should only take
851 real action (i.e. removing or creating files, running external
852 programs, etc.) if $run is non-zero.
853
854 The baton hash is created simply from the start hooks; if the hook
855 returns at least one defined value, this value is used as the key and
856 all other return values are put into a list reference as the value.
857 This hash is then passed by reference to all filter, post-store, and
858 stop hooks.
859
860 Post store hooks take a reference to a hash of batons, a reference to
861 a hash of headers, the folder this message was stored in, and its new
862 message number.
863
864 XXX: need more details about the hook process; for now read the code.

866 =head1 EXAMPLES
867
868 @FILTERS = (
869
870 ['List-Id',
871 ['<([[:graph:]]+)-([[:graph:]]+)\.lists\.sourceforge\.net>', 'l/$1/$2'],
872 ['<([[:graph:]]+?)(-list)?\.freedesktop\.org>', 'l/freedesktop/$1'],
873 ['<swig\.cs\.uchicago\.edu>', 'l/swig'],
874 ],
875
876 ['List-Post',
877 ['<mailto:([[:graph:]]+)+@([[:graph:]]+)\.apache\.org>', 'l/apache/$2/$1'],
878 ],
879
880 ['To',
881 ['root', 'root'],
882 ],
883 );
884
885 The first List-Id filter is a surprisingly effective one which creates
886 appropriate folder names (such as l/htdig/updates and l/rox/devel) for
887 all Sourceforge lists to which i subscribe. Certainly there are lists
888 hosted at Sourceforge which do not work well with this, and this is
889 where it is important to remember that the first match is the one
890 uses. Simply put the more specific rules before this one.
891
892 The next List-Id example is simple. The swig example demonstrates
893 that the folder name does not have to use a portion of the matched
894 header; you can just hardcode the folder name.
895
896 The List-Post example is a nice one. Most ASF projects have their own
897 apache.org subdomain, with mailing lists hosted there. So, given a
898 list such as dev@httpd.apache.org, this filter will create the folder
899 name l/apache/httpd/dev.
