mail for all..

2002-05-30 08:38:53
hi everyone..

i have a setup and am looking for a working solution, was wondering if anyone 
has any suggestions (well working suggestions.. what i've been trying hasn't 
been working).

i have a linux box with postfix, procmail and fetchmail installed. it pulls 
down email for a domain from a pop server elsewhere from a single mail account. 
it's actually a catch-all account though and will get any mail addressed to 
this domain. fetchmail (set up to run as a daemon started by root) retreives it 
just fine.

my problem has been getting postfix & procmail to separate the messages (by the 
to address) and write them out to various /var/spool/mail/<user id> mbox format 
files. i've been trying to set this up under root so it would have privledges 
to write to anyone's mbox. but no matter where i put it, procmail seems to 
ignore root's .procmailrc file (maybe this is a "feature"? i can't find any 
docs mentioning this).

i can't be the only person to try this. does anyone have a working solution or 
a better idea for my plan?

thanks!
