Mail slipping through rules?

1997-09-05 07:19:16
    I've been running procmail for a while, but never really understood
how the rc file worked (and it did work, so I never really bothered). 
I'd used a friend's rc file to make mine.  However, I recently switched
to using the ifile system with mh to direct my email into specific
folders.  Since then, while ifile always gets the email and places it in
a folder, maybe 30% of the messages also get placed in my mail spool
directory(?!?!?).  Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong, or how I
can make sure procmail doesn't put anything in the mail spool?  Whenever
I do this I end up getting 2 copies of the email, and I get enough email
as it is...  =)

Here's my .procmailrc:
MAILDIR=/var/mail

:0c
| /usr/local/bin/ifilter
:0
| /usr/local/libexec/zpopnotify woferry

    Thanks in advance.
