Mahoney" Message-id: <20000923102233.A33298@student.canterbury.ac.nz> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0.1i Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 4.0 Release Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've only just set up Procmail a day or two ago and followed the splendid advice given at: http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/ So far I've had no trouble with the setup. My .procmailrc looks like this: PATH=/bin/:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin VERBOSE=no MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox/inbox PMDIR=$HOME/Procmail LOGFILE=$PMDIR/.procmail_log ## LOGABSTRACT=all ## INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/testing.rc INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/lists.rc And my .forward file like this: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #rbm49" The .forward command line seems to differ from those given so far. I hope this helps.
