Hi again,
After some google'ing, someone suggested:
# formail -s procmail /path/to/procmailrc < <Maildir file>
. but I get this error when running it:
procmail: Suspicious rcfile "/home/gonzalo/.procmailrc"
procmail: Couldn't read "/home/gonzalo/.procmailrc"
I tried changing the permissions to '0644' (it was 0600 before) but that
didn't help.
What's your euid? You'll need to make sure procmail is running under
the same effective uid as the owner of the file before procmail will
allow you to do that. You'll also want to check permissions on the
home directory (can't be world- or group-writable).
From procmail(1):
Suspicious rcfile "x" The owner of the rcfile was not the
recipient or root, the file was
world writable, or the directory
that contained it was world
writable, or this was the default
rcfile ($HOME/.procmailrc) and ei-
ther it was group writable or the
directory that contained it was
group writable (the rcfile was not
used).
