I'm trying to use procmail to feed incoming mail to SpamAssassin and then forward the email to another address for one of my accounts. Because I use Postfix with Maildir, my /usr/local/etc/procmailrc file contains: DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir/" so that messages that don't match any rule get delivered to the normal "inbox". But for one person, I want to have all his mail scanned by SpamAssassin and then forwarded to a non-local email address. Here is his ~/.procmailrc file: # Forward all mail to SpamAssassin :0 fw | /usr/local/bin/spamc :0 fw ! user@otherdomain.com The forwarding works but then procmail goes on to deliver a blank email in $HOME/Maildir/new. blacklamb# ll Maildir/new total 0 -rw------- 1 user user 0 Oct 15 11:30 1066242632.35780_0.blacklamb.mykitchentable.net -rw------- 1 user user 0 Oct 15 11:33 1066242826.35812_0.blacklamb.mykitchentable.net I assume this is because of the "DEFAULT" setting in the site-wide procmailrc. However, it is my understanding that since all mail matches the second rule, mail processing should stop at that point and nothing should be delivered to "DEFAULT". What am I missing? Thanks, Drew
