? character in my /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME

2001-03-19 04:50:42
Hi, I'd been using Mutt for a year and half. Recently I moved my
workstation and install everything from the scratch again.

Currently I'm using Mandrake 7.2, reinstall postfix, mutt, fetchmail
and procmail from tarball sources.

I specify my mail spool is in /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME.

Sending mail using mutt is no problem at all. Problem occured when I
run fetchmail (and of course I have .procmailrc and .fetchmailrc in my
homedir) and the mail that are downloaded, are being placed in
/var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME? instead of /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME (notice
the question mar character) as well as it creates backup? file in my
homedir, instead of putting it in my $MAIL dir (which is $HOME/mail/)

And when I disable procmail (remove .procmailrc in my homedir) the
problem disappear, so I concluded that the problem is with procmail.
Anyone here experiencing similar problem and what's the solution ?
