This is probably something stupid I am missing and it's kinda of a long
story.
We have an old version of procmail that was running perfectly. The only
problem with it was that it was send the debug info to the mail server
(/dev/console).
On my workstation, I had my .forward and .procmailrc setup right.
Everything was working fine, except for those /dev/console messages
showing up on the server.
I downloaded the a new version of procmail. Made sure that the
/dev/consule messages are off and then compiled it on my workstation, not
the server. Then tested it out by hand with: procmail VERBOSE=on <
test.email. The debug message came up on my workstation. Everything looks
fine.
Now the problem is that when I test it in pine, nothing ever shows up in
my mail box. It works by hand with the above line, by it won't with the
same .forward I used in the previous version. Is there something I have
missed. Below is the .forward and my .procmail. ALso, the suid bits have
been set on procmail.
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Keven Murphy
