Sorry for the path; it's an old habit. On my linux debian box procmail is in /usr/bin; the rule came out of an old linux sendmail.ms file ;-) It can't harm to give the correct path (/usr/local/bin/procmail) in the sendmail.mc file, so I'll keep it in. Things run smoothly already.. > b) You don't really need to use procmail as the delivery agent of ALL > the local users.

I'm not quit sure about the correct syntax of the .forward file. -- dick -- http://www.nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 4.7 ++ Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
