Subject: Backing up expired mail?
Date: 19 Apr 1997 10:23:48 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <qa3esngkgb.fsf@norm.berkshire.net> (raw)

Hello world,

I get the impression from the info pages that expired mail is deleted.
(Duh! ;-)  But I wonder, is it possible to move the expired mail into
a backup folder instead?  So that mail expired from 

  some.folder.I.care.about

is actually added to

  some.folder.I.care.about.backup

before being deleted?  (I have my own setup with nnmh that does this, but
I'd like to move to nnfolder...)

I suppose it would suffice to add the mail to both folders to begin with
and only expire it from one but I'd end up with a lot of duplicated mail
that way.  (On the other hand, if this is what I have to do, er, how
would I do it? ;-)
