This is the root directory for mailagent. If you choose to install the mailagent, you will enable people to ask for patches and eventually distributions. You need kit 2.0 (at least PL 9) and cshar 3.0 for the mailagent's PROCESS command to work properly. If you miss one of those, you can grab them my CPAN directory: http://search.cpan.org/search?author=RAM You will also have access to filtering abilities, specified using lex-like rules. The mailagent will delete all those mails you do not wish to read, forward others (e.g. rebroadcasting a mailing list), and file mail into folders for delayed reading. Instructions for configuring and setting your mailagent are found in the manual page. Once all is installed, run "man mailagent". You can also go to the man/ subdirectory and run the following: "nroff -man mailagent.1 | more -s". Look at the README file in the filter/ directory for hints on choosing between the C or the shell version of the filter.
