Filtering Bug Reports from the MT Plugin Directory Bug Tracker

I love procmail. I just spent a few minutes playing around with my ~/.procmailrc file and now any bug reports I get from the MT Plugin Directory Bug Tracker are now placed into ~/Mail/bugs/Project Name.

Here is the relevant portion of my ~/.procmailrc file:

# Catch bug reports from bugs.mt-plugins.org
:0:
* ^From: plugins@mt-plugins\.org
{
        :0 B
        * ^Proje[ck]t: \/.+
        bugs/`echo "$MATCH" | sed -e 's/ /_/g'`
}

And from my ~/.muttrc file to see all those mailboxes:

mailboxes `for file in ~/Mail/bugs/*; do echo -n "=bugs/$(basename $file) "; done`

Update: (2003-06-08 18:14)

Thanks go to Mike for the suggestion. So, here's the updated recipe:

# Catch bug reports from bugs.mt-plugins.org
:0:
* ^From: plugins@mt-plugins\.org
* B ?? ^Proje[ck]t: \/.+
bugs/`echo "$MATCH" | sed -e 's/[^-_A-Za-z0-9]/_/g'`
