1. Forward a copy of the e-mail if the subject begins with a specific pattern

   :0c * ^Subject: AW: \[TEST\] * ! foo@example.org

   
   
   

2. Move as SPAM tagged e-mails into a directory, then delete the e-mail

   :0 * ^Subject: \[SPAM\] * { :0c /home/retoh/SPAM :0 /dev/null }

   
   
   

3. Is there a procmail recipe to move a message into an IMAP folder?

   First of all, define a variable in /etc/procmailrc, e.g. you had an IMAP folder «DailyReport»:
   
   IMAP_DailyReport=$HOME/Maildir/.DailyReport/
   
   Please note the dot (".") before the IMAP folder name is important and not a typer. Then, add this rule to your .procmailrc in your home directory:

   :0 * ^Subject: Report: * ${IMAP_DailyReport}

   
   If an e-mail's subject begins with "Report: " it will be stored straight into the IMAP folder DailyReport instead of your Inbox.
   
   

4. I want to put SPAM mails into a dedicated folder server-side and by-pass the Inbox

   :0 * ^Subject: \[SPAM\] * ${IMAP_SPAM}

   
   (You have to define the related variable in /etc/procmailrc)
   Of course, you have to put this recipe *after* the spamassasin filter recipe which might look as followed
   

   :0fw: spamassassin.lock | /usr/bin/spamassassin

   
   
   

5. Move large messages directly to special folder

   # messages of size greater than 1 MB are too large for my inbox

   : 0
   * > 1000000
   ${IMAP_LARGE}

   
   
   

6. Use a logical AND while filtering

   Move all messages with a sender beginning with "top<anything>@<anything>" AND a subject containing «Frottier» to the SPAM folder.
   

   :0 H
   * ^From: [a-z]* ?<?top.*@*
   {
           :0 H
           * ^Subject: .*Frottier.*
           ${IMAP_SPAM}
   }
