Commands Atop Commands

The process of turning a common shell command into a program continues

Once I had sortby I found that I was frequently doing

        sortby -f x-spam-level -v +junkmail/spamassassin

So now I have a shell function:

        sortspam=() 
        { 
            sortby -f x-spam-level +junkmail/spamassassin $*
        }

After a couple of years, it evolved:

        sortspam=() 
        { 
            folder +junkmail/spamassassin;
            rmm `pick -subj MODERATE -or -subj 'pobox discards'`;
            sortby +junkmail/spamassassin $*;
            sortby -f x-spam-level +junkmail/spamassassin $*
        }
