Re: procmail automounting home??

Thanks for your reply.  I've started playing with this possibility.  So
far, no luck.  I'm trying to avoid recompiling :)

I've modified the sendmail.cf lines so:

Mprocmail,      P=/usr/bin/procmail, F=DFMSPhnu9, S=11/31, R=21/31, 
T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
                A=procmail -Y -m HOME=/var/procmail/$u $h $f $u


trying to redefine HOME.  I haven't tried redefining the Mlocal line yet.
Have that sinking feeling that I may have to look at code :(

Btw, how's Vandy?  I was a grad student there between '80 and '86.

Subject: Re: procmail automounting home??

Sorry I didn't mention that I did that already.  Actually, the first thing
I did, but it still automounts /home.  I changed it to

/var/procmail/$u/.forward

which is local to the mailhost.

Well, procmail will also trigger the automount and redirecting the
the $HOME/.procmailrc name to a place local to the mailhost will
simply add a symlink traversal to the lookup in addition to the
automount.  You'll need to tell procmail to look in a different
place that $HOME/.procmailrc and I can't tell you how to do that
off the top of my head.  Hopefully Philip G. or David T. will speak
up on that issue.
