sbirl:  sbirl:  I decieded to add a few rules to my sendmail.mc file.
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  After I re-built the sendmail.cf, installed it, and restarted 
sendmail
sbirl:  sbirl:  all of my email started dropping in my inbox.
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  So I grep'ed the procmail INSTALL and README files, but couldnt 
remember
sbirl:  sbirl:  what code I was supposed to place back into my .cf file.
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  An initial search (not too in depth) of www.procmail.org didnt 
find me
sbirl:  sbirl:  anything.
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  I'll be trying a more in depth search via Google asap.
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  Could someone supply an answer for me?
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:  Is there a way I could add it to the .mc file, so I dont forget 
it in
sbirl:  sbirl:  another re-build?
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:
sbirl:  sbirl:   Thanks

sbirl:  I remember that a Linux server (one I cant blow up) is running procmail 
too.
sbirl:  I grep'ed the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file and found the following lines:
sbirl:
sbirl:
sbirl:  define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail') dnl
sbirl:  FEATURE(local_procmail,`',`procmail -t -Y -a $h -d $u') dnl
sbirl:  MAILER(procmail)dnl
sbirl:
sbirl:
sbirl:  which I added to my sendmail.mc file and re-built.  Looks like Im back 
in
sbirl:  business.  :)



Additionally it was the Mlocal line in sendmail.cf that I was forgetting
to change.  (But now the .mc file handles it for me)

Mlocal,         P=/usr/bin/procmail,






Alright ... enough email from me.  I'll just go back to reading it.
