I keep getting lock failures on my /var/mail/rick
I know i need to use a local lock file, but how.
I have tried different things and can't seem to get it right.
tried using lockfile=/usr/home/rick/locked.lck etc.....
but no use
How do you set a general local lock file.
You probably don't want a global lockfile, in case that's what you
meant. It should suffice to specify the lockfile name on the starting
line of any recipe that delivers to your default mailbox, e.g.
:0:/usr/rick/locked.lck
Hope this helps.
Another Rick,
