My user account on linux gets some Cron Jobs among mail from humans. I don't want to see the cron messages.
How can I script it so they are moved out of the "inbox" view (for example, on Squirrel Mail or my mobile client)?
I can grep for root@<domain> (Cron Daemon) to find the files that are emails from Cron. But I don't know how to actually process them from here.
Edit: they are using dovecot here, in case that makes a difference. Messages appear as files in the format:
1696857026.V902I580559fM559719.<domain>.de:2,
Edit 2: I have learned that the trailing S can be appended to a filename to mark it as read (or Seen), so I just need to know how to move it from the inbox to somewhere safe now.
Why not reconfigure cron not to send the unwanted messages?
I don’t have root. Otherwise that would be ideal.
Maybe it would be better to have people pipe their mails into a rotated log dir, so you only get critical errors.
I don’t have root though
