Okay, that's cool, I had never heard of that. The documentation on this
feature is a little lacking.
Is support for /etc/procmailrcs/ built in to procmail, or does it have
to be somehow manually included in the MTA? The procmail man page
includes some grotty sendmail rules that mention procmailrcs but doesn't
talk about users, and the only explanation for the directory seems to be
that it's a "special privileges path for rcfiles". Where's the beef?
And which takes precedence? If a user has BOTH a ~username/.procmailrc
and an /etc/procmailrcs/username, is one used and not the other? Or is
one read first?
And when /etc/procmailrcs/username is run, is it with the permissions of
the user rather than root?
