Hello,
I've had a look in the FAQ and the docs and I can't find the answer to
this, though I think it must be quite simple.
I am using procmail as sendmail's LDA to deliver mail to Maildirs in the
user's home directory.
I have a system wide rc file in /etc which just contains:
DROPPRIVS=yes
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail
VERBOSE=on
:0
*
$HOME/Maildir/
Which serves to make sure that all mail goes in to the user's maildir
(from where courier-imap serves it)
What I want is for the users to be able to use their own .procmailrc to
add filtering of their own. I was assuming that the user's .procmailrc
would be processed ahead of the system wide one, but it doesn't seem to
be. I tried moving the system wide rc file to force procmail to use the
one in my home directory, but then procmail stopped performing any
delivery at all (and produced no messages in the logs) and the mail
ended up in my normal mail spool.
I don't know why procmail isn't using my .procmailrc - is it something
to do with it being Sendmail's LDA? Presumably it runs as root until it
drops privs.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Andy
