 Hullo. I am very very new to UNIX and I need some step by step help in
setting up Procmail and a recipe. I've looked at several references, but
I'm still lost on some basics. To give you an idea: How is the recipe
called? Procmail has so many flags that I can't imagine how long I'll
spend trying to find out which flag I should or shouldn't be using... :)
 What I'm hoping someone will be able to do is give me a step by step list
that would contain friendly tips that may have been overlooked in the
Procmail documentation...I don't want anyone to use up a lot of time
explaining everything in detail when that has already been done in the
documentation.
 If someone could give me a template recipe and a few steps aimed at a
complete UNIX beginner plus one or two of their favourite references, that
would be perfect.
 Thank you very much for your time.

Try reading the working procmail recipes in my procmail library,
which you can get by sending me an email with the subject
"send procmail library", or by browsing my web page under the
"mail" or "depot" links.

G'luck.
