Hello to all,
For a long time that I use mutt/fetchnail/procmail without any
problems. Today I decide to give a try to getmail. I've configure it to
pipe to procmail and it gives the error:
===
getmail started for user(_at_)domain(_dot_)bogus:110
POP3 greeting: +OK
POP3 user response: +OK
POP3 PASS response: +OK
POP3 stat response: 1 messages, 614 octets
POP3 list response: +OK
msg #1/1 : len 614 ... retrieved Delivery error (command
"/usr/local/bin/procmail -d user" exited 0 but wrote to stderr
(procmail: [82414] Thu Feb 6 21:31:07 2003
procmail: Assigning "LOGABSTRACT=all"
procmail: Assigning "LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log"
As a rule, I assign a LOGFILE _BEFORE_ I set things like LOGABSTRACT and
VERBOSE. But hey, that's just me.
Where do you figure procmail will emit logging information to before you've
specified a LOGFILE? You get _one_ guess.
procmail: Opening "/var/log/procmail.log"))
What user is this all running as? Should just any user be permitted to
write to files in /var/log/ ?
