i would be really interested in the answer to the below question as well.

Hi kayven,
well...after tearing some of my hair out, i found out that indeed, i hadnt
created .forward file!! That's why procmail wasnt getting invoked...i put
this line inside my .forward file:

"|IFS=' ' && p=/usr/local/bin/procmail && test -f $p && exec $p -Yf- ||
exit 75 #YOUR_LOGIN_NAME"

then i placed it in my home directory...i've forgotten that i wasnt in
linux environment anymore, in which case you dont need a .forward
file...right now i'm using sunOS 5.7...

hope that helps :) thanks for everybody who helped me during my temporary
period of stupidity recently :)thanks!!

Hi..thanks for the reply...
how do you make sure the procmail is getting invoked? Right now i dont
know where to start, i'm not even sure why it isnt invoked! This is my
first time...what is usually the cause of procmail not getting invoked??

thanks...

Two likely possibilities: either your .procmailrc doesn't tell procmail 
to
log anything, or procmail isn't even getting invoked.  The latter would 
also
explain why your recipes are ignored and everything is falling into your
spool file.
