Hey all. I have another recipe question.
For a while, I would like to collect the headers of all email that
doesn't match any of my other kill recipes, so I borrowed the one from
the procmailex manpage:
:0 hwc:
* !^FROM_MAILER
| gzip >> ~/.mutt/headc.gz
Later I will try to limit the messages that I collect headers from to
those I haven't already declared as crap, but for now, I wanted to
test it out and tweak it.
Here's the problem: it has a problem with locking. I know the lock
here is important, else I would have an unreadable header collection,
but with only one message coming in and my ~/.mutt/ directory
permissions set at 777, I don't know why this happens.
Here it is (sorry for the long lines):
procmail: Match on ! "(^(((Resent-)?(From|Sender)|X-Envelope-From):|>?From
)([^>]*[^((_dot_)%(_at_)a-z0-9])?(Post(ma(st(er)?|n)|office)|(send)?Mail(er)?|daemon|mmdf|n?uucp|ops|r(esponse|oot)|(bbs\.)?smtp(error)?|s(erv(ices?|er)|ystem)|A(dmin(istrator)?|MMGR))(([^).!:a-z0-9][-_a-z0-9]*)?[%@>
][^<)]*(\(.*\).*)?)?$([^>]|$))"
procmail: Locking "~/.mutt/headc.gz.lock"
procmail: Error while writing to "~/.mutt/_dvC.lV2M7.acadia"
procmail: [11229] Fri Jun 22 11:34:06 2001
After about 8 errors, this is what happens:
procmail: Lock failure on "~/.mutt/headc.gz.lock"
procmail: Executing " gzip >> ~/.mutt/headc.gz"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER= gzip >> ~/.mutt/headc.gz"
So it looks like it executes anyway.
The lockfile and the .mutt/_*.acadia file never seems to appear, and
later on in the same message processing, I see this:
procmail: Extraneous locallockfile ignored
So what lockfile?
Any ideas here folks?
Thanks in advance.
Lou
