Re: procmail duplicates arriving message names (?)

2004-12-08 17:00:34
Toen wij Roberto S. G. kietelden, kwam er dit uit:

If a put "MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/", would procmail send new messages to
"$HOME/Maildir/new" ?

The MAILDIR='value' sets the Present Working Directory to 'value'.

Never put a slash at the end of $MAILDIR. Use quotes if embedded
spaces are even only remotely possible.


You could do this:

   MAILDIR="$HOME/Mail"
   :0
   * conditions
   .


but normally you would give the folder a name:

   MAILDIR="$HOME/Mail"
   :0
   * conditions
   IN.work/


Or should I put "DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/" and left
"MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir" as it is?


Or use the
  DEFAULT="$MAILDIR/"
approach, but I would use something like
  DEFAULT="$MAILDIR/IN.todo/"
