Well, uhm, what are the permissions of the $HOME/Mail folder, and the

Mail
drwxr-x--x      .
drwx--s--x      ..
-rw-------      from?
-rw-------      mbox??

I tried deleting the from & mbox and mkdir with 755 mod...      no luck
        and it added more files with questions after them

removed the last default lines...                               no luck

removed the bob filter (since I'm testing from bob): and it still
refuses to
put the mail anywhere but in /var/spool/mike.  I will not move it to
~mike/Mail/mbox.
 

I've no familiarity with exim.  Is this a sendmail replacement?  If so, is
there any particular reason you are using it over a recent stable release
of sendmail?  I ask, because sendmail is well known in these circles,
whereas I've not heard (much) of exim WRT procmail.

Gotcha.  Better to have support.  How about qmail?  Many folks prefer
it.  Are
people on this list familiar with qmail?  I will make the mta switch if
it looks
like I have problems in the mta.
