Actually, recently I have started using isync/mbsync, which I think is a better solution than the other combinations (offlineimap, or syncmaildir+getmail). It can do anything that I want to do with offlineimap, and so far has been quite reliable. So I recommend isync/mbsync highly to any one who wants to sync offline Maildir with IMAP servier.
For representing the logical email folder structure, a "Maildir++" format exists that was first implemented by the Courier mail server, thus sometimes also being referred to as the "Courier" format.
Unfortunately, some ambiguity exists in documentation and various implementations, regarding how the logical email folders are to be stored inside the main "Maildir" directory, ie.
I installed Getmail to retrieve emails from another email server and Procmail to filter the incoming emails. (I am running Debian/Squeeze.)
The recipe I created has this code:
:0:
* ^TO_myemailaddress@domain.com
Xyz
I thought this will make sure that all incoming emails will be saved in ~/Maildir/Xyz/ as individual files.
So I'd like to try rss2email, which you simply give an smtp server and it sends you the feed by email.I was wondering, since I currently fetch my mail with getmail and distribute it to my maildir with procmail, could I get rss2email to send the feeds localy (i.e.
I seem to remember a patch to mutt that allowed to modify the path of the mailbox in mbox-hook in include the date. For example, you could have this:
mbox-hook Maildir +Archive/%y/%m/maildir
Which would save the emails in Archive/2011/12/maildir if they were send during December 2011.

Years ago I've configured getmail to fetch messages from 2 different accounts and put them in the local Maildir.
For my mailserver I have a dovecot, postfix and sieve setup.
I have several hundred mails in my maildir and have recently created some sieve rules for sorting them. Unfortunatelly the sieve rules are by design only applied to incoming messages. Therefore my question:
How can I run sieve against messages in an already existing maildir?
Thanks
I successfully installed and configured Exim4 on my Debian/Squeeze machine, so now I am able to send outgoing emails with a command like this:
exim4 -v recipient@domain.com
From: sender@domain.com
To: recipient@domain.com
Subject: Test email
Body of the email

Is there a similar command to RETRIEVE emails into the Maildir folder?
NOTE: The emails I want to retrieve are from another email ser
