[pmmail-list] Rex script to incoming messages to folder?

[Dean Boulding]

I did something like this once, to concatenate a bunch of messages to "seed" my 
POPFile spam filter.  As far as I recall, I just opened a DOS window and used 
simple commands like copy a+b+c, or perhaps type *.msg > file.txt

Sorry I don't remember exactly how, but I don't have time at the moment to try 
again.

Cheers,
Dean
