At 11:13 2002-10-05 +0200, Andy McKell, FOCUS Internet did say:
My spam log files (not verbose) are filling-up with lines such as
procmail: Skipped "OB:"
procmail: Skipped "O:"
Every arriving mail generates a couple of hundred of these as it runs
through every test
Any ideas on how to stop this?
If you enabled VERBOSE, you'd easily be able to peg down which recipes any
given warning is associated with.
Then, fix your broken filters. Flag lines *START* with a colon, not end
with one (well, they can end with one, but the point is that they're
supposed to start with one). Also, that's probably supposed to be a ZERO
('0'), not an OH ('O'), as you have it in the messages above. There is no
'O' flag.
If you had run these filters in a sandbox, you might have caught these
errors BEFORE putting them into live use (where botched filters can result
in LOST email). Consider re-thinking your testing methodology.
