        regarding ``forward to itself mail box.''
        
I know how to forward email to other mailbox account.
but if I want to forward email to other mailbox and myself mailbox.
how do I write the .procmailrc ?

say your other account is 'you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com'


This just forwards to 'you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com':

:0
! you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com


this forwards to 'you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com'
        and leaves a copy locally (assuming this is all you are doing)

:0c
! you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com



if you want to make sure you get a copy dumped in your INBOX (for example if  
you have other receipes you do not want to interfere)


:0
{
        :0c
        ! you(_at_)otheraccount(_dot_)com


        :0w:
        $DEFAULT
}       

see 'man procmailex' for issues about avoiding mail loops
