[sork] the sork conglomerate

[Tim Gorter]

I've been looking over the various files that make up the Sork collection,
and intend to start re-working them to suit my application. Saying that I
would like to see where the rest of the development team is up to, as I
certainly don't want to double up on work.

A few problems I have that I want to resolve include.
using .forward file for forwards.
I want to transfer this function to procmail, as this allows a lot more
flexibility, multiple forwards if needed, some filtering if wanted.

Same goes with the vacation module, this I would like to do via procmail as
well, again to allow for filtering, also to allow the simultaneous feature
of doing an auto-answer and forwarding a message, as (against popular
belief) I have several people who do this, not because they are on
vacation, but because they are travelling, and may use alternative boxes
because of this, but want to warn people of a delayed receipts or similar.

And again they sometimes set a filter, i.e. so that only messages to a max
size are forwarded, for the same reason, for those people who are
travelling, using alternative boxes thus or have the big messages moved out
of the inbox into a holding folder, so they don't interfere with a POP
session. (note: I know this is a webmail program, thus accessible all over
the world in internet cafes etc.... not always the case, I have quite a few
people who work via satellite and their online time is loads of money.)

I know there is a separate group starting on the SAM module for SpamAssasin
integration. Again I want to pull this under the one hat, as in end effect
it has to do with mail filtering that can be done via procmail.

now I am not a super programmer, nor am I familiar with the CVS repository
system. So at the moment I look forward to the help of you guys, and if you
have already something in this direction, it would be nice to talk to you.

cheers,
tim.
