Hi all, 

Imagine you have N mailing lists and want to filter them all in the same
manner: list-n  -> list-n.archive. Do you have to set up one filter rule
for each list like that?


filter Archive-list-n
    older x
action move list-n.archive
job Archive-list-n list-n


With a lot of lists this is getting rather complex. Is there an easier way
to achive that kind of filtering? I thought of something like:


folder AllLists list-1,list-2,..,list-N
filter ArchiveAllLists
    older x
action move ${current folder}.archive
job ArchiveAllLists AllLists


ouh, seems that's exactly what Per Westerlund asked for, too. Lefteris, are
you planning to implement anything like that?

cheers,
Martin
