MATCHERRC2PERLFILTER.PL(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation MATCHERRC2PERLFILTER.PL(1)
NAME
matcherrc2perlfilter -- Conversion of matcherrc rules to perl
DESCRIPTION
This script converts matcherrc filtering rules into perl_filter rules for usage with the claws-mail-perl-filter plugin of the Claws Mail
mailer.
USAGE
matcherrc2perlfilter
No arguments required. Conversion is done for current user only.
FILES
$HOME/.claws-mail/matcherrc
Input file where standard filtering rules lie.
$HOME/.claws-mail/perl_filter
Output file written by this script. Converted rules are appended if the file already exists, so be careful when running the script more
than once.
BUGS
This conversion script doesn't produce nice Perl code and is just intended to get you started. If you choose to use the Perl plugin,
consider rewriting your rules.
