In recipe examples that I've seen, there is a space between the zero and second colon in ":0 :". I don't know if this matters. 2. To test the recipes, make a copy of the mailbox and run formail. (formail is installed with procmail.) cd ~ cp /var/mail/henninb ./henninb2 formail -ds procmail < ./henninb2 If the recipes work, then the problem may be that procmail isn't being executed successfully. Good luck, Andrew Gould
