In the absence of a blank line delimiting procmail log records,
is there an easy way to identify email boundaries?
How about:
LOG="
THIS IS A NEW ONE
"
near the top of your procmailrc.
And a global lockfile before that so that you get only one procmail at
once:
LOCKFILE=$PMDIR/testing.lock
Or you could use just
LOG="
"
which is good enough for me. This is one of the things I suggest
in my Procmail Quick Start in the Troubleshooting section, which
is here
<http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/#fullLog>
I've had these two lines in my .procmailrc for a while and I
constantly monitor my log using `tail -f' and haven't noticed
any collisions of message logs so I don't think you need a global
LOCKFILE (but I'd like to know if you do!).
HTH,
Nancy
