procmail

last effort again.

1998-02-27 20:54:49

It was voiced, a few things.  "Your starting procmail too many times" (I
have only one execution of procmail now.)  "I'd check your permissions"
Well I did and here they are. "Get 3.11pre7 it may fix your problem."
Done, and yes the same error.

-rwsr-sr-x   1 root     mail        52628 Feb 26 23:50 procmail
(the procmail file itself in /usr/bin/ )

drwxr-xr-x   4 root     mail         1024 Feb 12 22:36 home
(the home directory)

drwxr-xr-x  10 dionysus dionysus     1024 Feb 27 20:19 dionysus
(dionysus under home ( ~/  )

-rw-------   1 dionysus mail           65 Feb 26 23:11 .fetchmailrc
( under ~/ )

drwxrwxrwx   2 dionysus mail         1024 Feb 27 20:21 .procmail
(the dir I want mail to go (I did a chmod 777 to see if it would work))
(This is the baby that procmail CAN'T get into)

-rw-r--r--   1 dionysus mail          318 Feb 26 23:04 .procmailrc
(the rc file itself)

-rw-r--r--   1 dionysus dionysus       62 Feb 27 20:13 .forwardkcl
(its been renamed, everything still works the same as before.)

-rw-------   1 dionysus dionysus       52 Feb 26 23:03 rc.other
(simple recipe file under .procmail dir) (procmail cant read it.)

Errors:

Well  Same as before, procmail: Couldn't chdir "/home/dionysus/.procmail"

        Another funny thing, I have the proc.log file building, I CANT
edit it, I cant cat it, I cant delete it, I cant chmod it. I CAN however
read it in PINE (although its read only)  What in the hell is the problem?
Too many people "don't know".  If this is your first time reading of my
problem the contents of these files and more can be located in a message
of this group with the title "Last effort".  Again, any help would be
REALLY cool! (Six pack man, if you can fix it, I'll mail ya one!)
