I'm in the process of setting up pine and need some guidance. PINE is the
mailreader I use. My questions are:
1)How do I verify that Pine is pointed to /Mail?
Last time I looked at pine you could do it from the 'config' selection
under 'setup'. Look for "folder-collections". Before you do that,
why not just use $HOME/mail? Procmail doesn't care.
2)What do I need to configure in PINE/procmail so that mail will be
directed to folders, i.e. folders I've created in PINE for mailing lists?
Write recipes. For example:
MAILDIR = $HOME/Mail # chdir to $HOME/Mail. Could also be $HOME/mail
# Recipes start with a line that starts ":0". The second colon on
# this line tells procmail to use a locallockfile when delivering.
# Check out the procmailrc(5) manpage for the details of recipe syntax.
# The second line of this recipe is a regular expression that matches
# the "From " line on messages from the procmail mailing list itself.
# The last line tells procmail to deliver the message to the "procmail"
# mailbox in the current directory.
