Subject: procmail delievering mail 


I was looking at a bunch of faqs and all over procmails site and couldnt
find how to make procmail deliever to user home directories and not to
/var/mail/$LOGIN. Im guessing its something in the /etc/procmailrc but i
cant find a list of commands for the file. If anyone knows a good procmail
site or a good how to id like to know.  Thanks for any info you can give.

You can  make use of the procmailrc file.It needed to be created by youself,and 
generally its location is /etc directory.If you want to deliever mail to user 
home directory instead of /var/mail/$LOGIN,you can add this 
in your procmailrc file:
  MAILDIR=$HOME
  DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/mbox
  ORGMAIL=$MAILDIR/mbox
  LOCKFILE=$HOME/.lockmail
Good luck!
