Delivery to /var/spool/mail for virtual users

2004-09-22 02:58:36
Hello,

I'm using postfix with mysql and procmail to parse mail for virtual users
stored in the database. So the users doesn't have any system account.

The only problem I had is that procmail doesn't deliver mail to /var/spool/mail
by default.

I need to store the mail in /var/spool/mail/$USER by default if none
of the 3 conditions apply to the mail.

How can I do that ?

Can procmail take the username in the "From:" header, because postfix do not
pass the username in $1 ?

thanks in advance.

My /etc/procmailrc looks like that :

----
# Use maildir-style mailbox in user's home directory
#DEFAULT=$HOME/.maildir/
#DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/

LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log
MAILDIR=/var/spool/mail/
USER="$1"
