Actualy, at the moment, i use https://github.com/jrosdahl/maildirproc, which is python based and offers less functionality. But it has no encoding problems.

I will replace it by this project, when some of the TODOs are solved.

mySortMaildir

A small program, which filters mails in maildirs by some simple configurable rules. In my configuration are the maildirs updated by offlineimap and read via mutt but also other programs use maildirs.

I am actually not sure, if it is safe to use this program.

Setup

To configure, create a mySortMaildir.hs by using mySortMaildir.hs.example and

$ cabal sandbox init
$ cabal install

Then build the project

$ cabal build

or run it directly via

$ cabal run

or run it without compiling via

$ cd src
$ chmod +x mySortMaildir.hs
$ ./mySortMaildir.hs

TODO:

• try https://hackage.haskell.org/package/email-header
• Remember already parsed/sorted mails
  • get config file via getExecutablePath
  • compare MD5 of config, to check for changes (Data.Digest.Pure.MD5)
  • serialize / cache parsed information
• Watch the folders with System.FSNotify
• Solve encoding problems
• tui with https://github.com/skogsbaer/hscurses or http://jtdaugherty.github.io/vty-ui/
• use parsec for parsing
• Find better name ({,h}S{o,}rtM{ai,}ld{i,}r)
