Re: etc/procmail configuration question

2001-07-05 08:34:10

I have the following /etc/procmailrc working well to filter out "bad"
mails for our site.  However the only problem I cannot figure out is
the lock - it always complains "cannot unlock ..." no matter how I
change the lock file location.  The lock file always has root as
owner and permission as 400 -- isn't /etc/procmailrc executed by root?
;-)  Also, occasionally it has "0200 ignored", still don't have a clue
yet since I don't have umask in the rc -- does procmail read in user
environment parameters (such as .cshrc)? (You may note that I comment
out the LOCKFILE line -- so far so happy).

Any expert view on this?
