Maildir...

2001-05-10 08:30:52

Hi, I'm running procmail v3.15.1 2001/01/08 along with qmail, on linux slackware. Actually, I'm not really running procmail, I compiled and installed it. Mail gets delivered ok, but not sorted and nothing shows up in the log. I start it this way; qmail-start '| preline /usr/bin/procmail' splogger qmail
Here's some info from procmail -v;
Locking strategies:     dotlocking, fcntl(), lockf()
Default rcfile:         $HOME/.procmailrc
Your system mailbox: /var/spool/mail/caronj /var/spool/mail/caronj does not exist anymore (since switch over from mbox to maildir). In docs, "examples/advanced" points to config.h (SYSTEM_MBOX) to define this. Then this points to src/authenticate.c. In there, I found out a little late, MAILSPOOLDIR is set to "/var/spool/mail/". Not good. How exactly should it be defined, "$HOME/Maildir/", is this it ? I've tried redefining MAIL in .profile, echo $MAIL returns /home/caronj/Maildir/, but procmail -v still returns the above (/var/spool/mail/caronj). Could this alone explain why mail gets delivered, yet nothing gets sorted ? Also, here's the top part of my .procmailrc;
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail.log
QMAIL=/var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
# added for testing / setup of Maildir format
VERBOSE=YES
LOGABSTRACT=all Do my recipes require any changes since I moved from mbox to maildir ? Here's an example of what's in there;
