I have a secondary account on patriot.net. They use procmail 3.10 as
their mail agent. Which i got to work fairly well.
Last week they upgraded the OS from FreeBSD to Red hat Linux. Since the
upgrade my auto-responce recipes have been acting funny.
Procmail keeps trying (and failing) to open LASTFOLDER. Which keeps
getting set to "".
And it is unable to write to .lock files - although the filters it is
hanging on do not use locks.
Same thing happens for me under HP-UX 9.x at work. I have no trouble
with users that have .forward files with a call to procmail, but for
the rest, when I use procmail as local delivery agent, it seems to
take an awful lot of time --- nearly exactly 30 minutes --- to deliver
a local mail. And I've seen odd lock file problems.
Could they have messed up the recompile of procmail?
Their responce is that it must be my recipes - but the tech who responded
was unsure as he is not familar with procmail.
