Hello,

I have a .procmailrc which works fine when placed in the user's home
directory. But its not working under /etc. :((
Can't it be placed like that? what changes needs to be done ?
How do I set up /etc/procmailrc for system-wide use?
What permissions and ownership should be set? I am calling procmail from
my sendmail.cf.

Some one please help me. Thanks in advance.



In my case it was a file permission problem, just like what Nancy
suggested.


If you have shell access to your server, telnet/ssh to the server and
then type the following.


cd /etc

chown -v [rootuserid]:[rootgroup] procmailrc

That should take care of it.
