I use recipient_delimiter addresseses quiet a bit, and I want to put several of them into a mailbox

if anyof (header :contains ["to"] [ “FOO", “foo", “bar", “florin"]) { fileinto :create “later"; stop; }

# MORE NOTES: # Using :localpart takes just the local part of an address # header selects a header, address selects an address # Looks like this is the spec: # :localpart = :user+:detail # address are :localpart @ :domain, or :user + :detail @ :domain # See RFC5233

I use this bit for figuring out what :detail something (might) be going to:

# Check to see if we have detail. . .
if address :matches :detail "To" "*" {
     # Save name in ${detail} in all lowercase
     # Joe, joe, jOe thus all become 'joe'.
     # Note that we set it to lower, not first-cap
     # because we're going to use this name for a mailbox
     set :lower "detail" "${1}";
     set :lower "user" "${def_user}”;
}

I don’t know where I got this from, but I am pretty sure it was on this list. :-)

I use it to bucket email based on detail (if no detail, it goes into the address’s default folder, otherwise it goes into the detail folder).

While this is interesting, I am not using if address :matches, I am using if header :contains.
