RE: help with mail sort, mysteriously self-creating folder!

Hey Gary, are you saying that all of my rule sets I should add :0: before
the 'From@ field? I was always told to add them on top. All of my others are
on top and they do work.

My .procmailrc file is printed below and I have added the lines you have
suggested:

LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=yes
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/jmf
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/.general.rc

Should I leave a space between :0: and 'From:.?'

J

Jim

Let me better explain. The actual text is written as:

 *^From:(_dot_)*(_at_)c3ntris\(_dot_)com
/dev/null



You really need that :0: before the pattern match.

:0:
* ^From:(_dot_)*(_at_)c3ntris\(_dot_)com
/dev/null

is the way to go.

When debugging it is a good idea to have a logfile, and to set verbose on.
Add this to the top of your .procmailrc file.

LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=yes
