James Pattinson:
both /etc/procmail and ~/.procmail have MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/ and I
Not related to your error, but your $MAILDIR should not end in a slash.
Setting MAILDIR is the procmail chdir command.
MAILDIR = "$HOME/Maildir"
If it is set in /etc/procmailrc (you forgot the 'rc'?),
there is no need to set it again in ~/.procmailrc
(unless you use the ~/.procmailrc on the command-line of formail of
course)
To have delivery to your 'maildir'-type folder (that you called
Maildir),
you can use this:
DEFAULT = "$MAILDIR/"
(so with the backslash)
but that would cause any maildir folder like "$HOME/Maildir/spam/" to be
next
to the internal folders cur, new and tmp of the maildr folder
"$HOME/Maildir/",
so better would be something like
DEFAULT = "$MAILDIR/INBOX/"
Aaargh: $MAILDIR, Maildir/ and 'maildir' in one message.
