error writing to

2004-09-08 06:51:15
I have been trying to work out why I do get this error:
Error while writing to "/var/spool/mail/_TSC.LWwPBB.terminator.odysse"

where could possibly the _TSC.LWwPBB come from? terminator.odyssey is
the localhost as you guess

Am I goofing up? btw I use Fedora core 2.

Thanks,
Alfred Tuinman

my .procmailrc is as follows (there is no /etc/procmailrc file):

SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/usr/bin
MAILDIR=/var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME        # You'd better make sure it exists
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/admin
LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log
VERBOSE=ON
SENDER = "<$1>"   # fix for empty sender address
SHIFT = 1         # remove it from $@
