Delete emails from specific source in mailx/BSD mail
I need to delete all emails from a specific source. I can list all of the emails with the f source@emailaddress.com but I'm having to dump it to something like awk and back into mail... or copy all of the email header numbers individually.
Is there a faster way or a way integrated into the program that will do it automatically?

Are you specifically using bsd-mailx? IIRC, s-nail (heirloom-mailx) has much more extensive filtering.

Yes, I am specifically using the BSD mail program. It's the default on SDF that I've always used; I just let my inbox get away from me.
