Hi all. I've started having trouble with procmail. It has
spontaneously (as far as I can tell -- I've been using this setup for
years and haven't changed anything prior to this), started using a
Maildir system instead of the mbox setup that I am using for one of my
users. Specifically, it has created new/, cur/, and tmp/ directories
inside of
/var/spool/mail and put new mail into new/ instead of using
/var/spool/mail/$USER.
This is what I have at the top of /home/$USER/.procmailrc:
SHELL=/bin/sh
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/$USER
DROPPRIVS=yes
VERBOSE=on
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
The same thing happened to another user on my machine previously, an
admin account that is only used to get mail sent to root and
postmaster. I ended up trashing that account because I couldn't figure
out how to fix this. Now it has happened to my personal mail account,
which I would rather not trash.
Help please!
Thanks.
