I am using procmail to filter my incoming mail that is delivered via
fetchmail.
Occasionally my mail is delivered into wrong mailbox. The following is part of
my log file:
In your example the message is delivered into the right folder. The
matching condition is aya from the From line (without colon) and "weekly
report" from the subject line. You should carefully read the procmailrc man
page and play around a while to get the right feeling.
procmail: Match on "^From.(aya*|altman*|arkady*|qa0002*)"
procmail: Match on "^Subject.*Weekly Report+"
procmail: Locking "weekly.lock"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=weekly"
procmail: Opening "weekly"
procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock
procmail: [3476] Tue Mar 17 09:16:43 1998
procmail: Unlocking "weekly.lock"
From aya Tue Mar 17 09:16:42 1998
Subject: New Packages on the HP-UX Software And Porting Archive (weekly
report
Folder: weekly
8102
Rule from the "~/.procmailrc":
:0:
* ^From.(aya*|altman*|arkady*|qa0002*)
* ^Subject.*Weekly Report+
weekly
And finally all the headers from the incoming mail:
