[mew-int 3076] kill file

hi!

is there a way to implement a kill file in mew?

i would like mew to put the D mark automatically to messages after mail download that are set in the
configuration file in a similar way to guess-alist.

for example to say that "whenever somebody <at> example.org sends me a message it should automatically marked
D after download".

You can use a spam filter.  For example, for spamassasin, put in your
mew-rc-file 

(setq mew-spam-prog "sa-learn")
(setq mew-spam-prog-args '("--spam" "--single"))
(setq mew-ham-prog "sa-learn")
(setq mew-ham-prog-args '("--ham" "--single"))

(setq mew-inbox-action-alist
      '(("X-Spam-Flag:" (?D "YES" "yes"))
	))

and then, in ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs, put

blacklist_from somebody <at> example.org

or

You should also be able to match the From field in
mew-inbox-action-alist for this purpose, e.g.

(setq mew-inbox-action-alist
       '(("From:"
          (?D "somebody <at> example.org"))))
