RE: Using procmail with no home directory

I -think- What Klaus illustrated is really the way I want to go, 
although I haven't tested yet.

We have many "pseudo-users"--email addresses that don't directly correspond to 
real users, but might eventually be read by a human. I use the method suggested 
by Klaus to process these, where each entry in my /etc/aliases file has a line 
like this:

  nobugs: "|/usr/bin/procmail -m LOGFILE=/tmp/procmaillog \
           VERBOSE=off AUTO_RULES=yes NOBUGS=yes \
           /etc/spam/bdti.rc" 

Within the generic bdti.rc file I set the few variables I need to ensure 
correct processing of email. 

It works quite well for me.
