I have just started using procmail to filter mail into folders, which
I access from a PC using IMAP. There is still one recipe problem I
cannot solve: checking against a whitelist. This is the recipe I am
using, which I borrowed from one internet page or another:
* ? formail -x"From" -x"From:" -x"Sender:"\
| egrep -is -f ~/Procmail.whitelist
Inbox
It seems not to be working, as the log is reporting:
Skipped "* ? formail -x"From" -x"From:" -x"Sender:"\"
Skipped " | egrep -is -f ~/Procmail.whitelist"
Skipped "basicdirectory"
Can someone please help this beginner?
Your recipe is incomplete. Recipes need to start with
:0
Since your action is to save to a file, you also want a lockfile.
Hence
:0:
* ? yourstuff
Inbox
Btw, you probably want fgrep -f rather than egrep.
