NAME
murx - Filters e-mail, gets rid of spamSYNOPSIS
murx [OPTION]...DESCRIPTION
Murx is a very flexible utility to get rid of unwanted spam mails, before having to go through the trouble of downloading them into the local computer. It offers support for one or many POP accounts and is especially useful for dialup connections via modem, ISDN, etc.Murx connects to any POP mail box and compares part of its content to a set of user defined filter rules. That way the spam gets deleted directly on the mail server.
With Murx you can define your own filters (rules) to determine which e-mails should be delivered and which are considered waste. Rules are Regular Expressions, so you can make use of familiar options from other mail delivery programs such as procmail(1) for example.
RETURN VALUE
The murx program normally returns 0 but -1 if an error occurs. However, if it has been invoked with the return-value command line switch, it gives back a positive integer in case there are messages on the POP server. Empty POP accounts would then result in a return value of 0. Using the switch, murx can be embedded into a shell script more easily.CONFIGURATION
The behaviour of Murx is controlled by command-line options and a configuration file. The program will not start without it. Example configurations can be looked up in the murxex(5) man page, in the INSTALL document or inside the doc/ directory of the Murx distribution.By default Murx tries to read $HOME/.murxrc to get all its settings from. This is the place where all changes should be made, unless it is explicitly specified otherwise. A comprehensive list of all supported options and keywords can be found in the murxrc(5) man page.
