Hi,
I am trying to set up procmail for my home machine to filter my incoming
mail. When I send mail from my local machine to myself, the filter works.
If the the mail is coming from a remote host, the filter fails. I
download my mail from the remote server using popclient.
My .forward has:
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #cpn"
and my .procmailrc has:
#Set on when debugging
VERBOSE=on
#Replace `mail' with your mail directory (Pine uses mail, Elm uses Mail)
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
#Directory for storing procmail log and rc files
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/rc.testing
rc.testing is as follows:
:0:
* ^Subject:.*test
IN.testing
If I can't get it to work for the simple filter, then there is no point
trying anything more complex.
any ideas?
cheers,
Carey Nairn
