I want to thank all the regulars that have offered help on this list. I've
been on the list for some time and the regulars are incredible at the help
they offer, how often they answer the same basic questions in full with
only adding "see procmailex for more help" instead of just RTFM. It is
especially nice for them to offer all the (often repeated) basic help
considering their technical level. And all this is free for the asking!
Thanks to all.
I know very little about UNIX and procmail was a test of my limits to get
running. I was embarrassed a number of times by posting questions that
really were clearly written in the man pages. I finally had to print all
the man pages out and read them over MANY times to absorb, or just not
miss, and important point. I spent hours piping mail messages to procmail
for various tests, changing recipes bit-by-bit, and learning quite a bit.
A faq would be great, but the key for me was to start small and work up. Do
the examples one-by-one in procmailex and you will learn a lot.
Sorry for being off topic, but I just wanted to say thanks.
