 Filter (Unix) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems, a filter is program that gets most of its data from standard input (the main input stream) and writes its main results to standard output (the main output stream).
UNIX filters are often used as elements of pipelines.
The classic filter would be grep, which at it simplest prints to its output any lines containing a character string.

 Postfix After-Queue Content Filter
The after-queue content filter is not to be confused with the approach that is described in the SMTPD_PROXY_README document, where incoming SMTP mail is filtered BEFORE it is stored into the Postfix queue.
The simple content filter method is not suitable for content filter actions that are invoked via header_checks or body_checks patterns.
The content filter request records are added by the smtpd(8) and pickup(8) servers (and qmqpd(8) if you decide to enable this service).

Since renattach is a standard UNIX filter, it can be installed into a wide variety of mailing systems.
The filter reads a single email message as input at stdin, then writes the filtered output either to stdout or to a pipe (external command) if the --pipe option is used.
filter unix - n n - - pipe flags=q user=filter argv=renattach -l -p sendmail -i -f ${sender} -- ${recipient} The pipe option must be the last option specified, with everything after it being taken as the command and arguments.

 Statistical Spam Filter Review
The spam filter is not Bayesian, but seems to have similar results to other probability based spam filters I have seen reviewed, and similar strengths and weaknesses.
The whitelist improves overall performance of the filter as it is several magnitudes of 10 times faster compared to the rest of the filtering script.
In my filter script most of the computing time is spent loading the associative array with tens of thousands of tokens and spaminess values.

 HWG Filtering FAQ - The HTML Writers Guild   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
If filtering is not an option, you may wish to consider obtaining a more sophisticated email program, or subscribing to a digest version of the mailing lists.
Although you cannot explicitly filter based on "sender", there is an option to sort based on "any header" which I have successfully used with other mailing lists.
Sorting or filtering digests by To:, From:, or Subject: will group together your HWG messages, if you are unable to filter by "Sender:".

 Dr. Dobb's | A Print Filter for UNIX | July 22, 2001
The filter resides in any convenient directory (we used /etc), has global execute permissions, and is invoked in the printer's /etc/printcap entry.
The difference is that an input filter is started afresh for every file sent to the printer, while an output filter is started only once for a whole series of jobs and cannot handle the individual jobs separately.
Unlike ordinary filters, print filters are allowed to lseek() (reposition) their input files under some flavors of UNIX; this raises the possibility of a two-pass filter.

 UNIX pipes as IO monads
UNIX pipes (treated semantically as writing to temporary files) are quite similar to monads.
Incidentally, a UNIX filter is expected to sequentially consume its input and produce a single output stream.
Therefore, from the point of view of the shell and filters, the input and the output streams are 'linear', singularly referenced objects.

 mod_ext_filter - Apache HTTP Server
In the event that the filter doesn't modify the length, this keyword should be specified.
This parameter specifies the numeric value for filter type that the filter should be registered as.
If the filter needs to operate at a different point in the filter chain than resource filters, then this parameter will be necessary.

 Free Unix Shell Statistical Spam Filter and Whitelist
As a spam detector I am not as good a filter as you might think, just the subject and address is not always enough, I would occasionally open a spam to my great annoyance.
And it is. I slapped one together as a ksh and awk script for use as a personal filter on a Unix type system.
If the address is not found it is passed to the statistical spam filter, the tokens are checked and the email is given a spaminess value.

The mail filter is designed for my wife and I. To avoid any danger of virus infection, we only read email on the Linux system that hosts bearcave.com.
The logic in the mail filter also tries to recognize whether an email is valid or SPAM by parsing the header, avoiding the more more time consuming processing of the email body.

 Experience Making a Filter Service for Cocoa
The ADC documentation that I located for filter services talks about them in reference to converting clipboards from one data format to another.
Since filters are just a special species of system service, they're stored in the same kind of bundle as a regular system service.
This is the method in the filter's service provider object that's supposed to be invoked to convert the data.

It uses the specified input and output devices/locations as analogs to standard input and standard output files in a command line execution of the filter.
If no filter is specified, pressing the "Filter" button simply copies the input to the output.
For example, setting "Input:" to "Primary selection", "Output:" to "Text window", and "Filter:" to "spell", will apply spell(1) to the selected text, reporting questionable word spellings in the scrollable text window.

 RabidFire spam filter for UNIX systems
RabidFire is an E-Mail filter for UNIX systems programmed in Tcl and driven by a programmable set of rules.
While the modifications to the filter itself, compared to the previous version (1.0), are relatively minor, I have decided to completely reorganize the standard (recommended) set of rules -- to reflect the shift in my approach to filtering spam.
Besides filtering, the same filter program can be used to perform four other functions identified by the name under which the program has been invoked.

 Managing UNIX-to-NetWare Printing
To authorize the UNIX host to send a print job to NetWare queue, include an entry in the /etc/printcap file that associates a UNIX print queue with the NetWare server and an exported NetWare print queue.
Although most UNIX systems use the printcap file to define printer entries, some implementations of UNIX use a different file.
Use this procedure to enable UNIX users to print to a queue located on a remote NetWare 4 server in the same NDS tree.

Depending on the filter selected, the user names matching the filter condition are listed in the Mapped Users table as well under the Unmapped Users table.

To unmap a group, select the names of the NetWare and UNIX groups that are to be unmapped from the Mapped Groups table and click Unmap.
