My procmail[rc] broke. I have it running on a hosting provider that uses
freebsd, if that makes any difference.
procmail -v reveals v3.22 2001/09/10
The heart of my script:
SHELL=/bin/sh
LOGFILE = /path/to/mail.log
VERBOSE = "yes"
:0:
* ^Subject:.*bad thing to catch 1*
$HOME/SPAM
:0:
* ^Subject:.*bad thing to catch 2*
$HOME/SPAM
:0 B:
" bad thing to catch 3"
$HOME/SPAM
Legit stuff was going to my mailbox.
Then, during one of the conditionals, the mail.log's Folder: revealed mail
suddenly going to a file in my home directory named after my email
address.
I cannot seem to reset the Folder: variable. I looked around for any
possible lock files that may not have been cleared, and removed what I
could.
I have NO root access on the host. Procmail now simply delivers
everything to that last Folder variable.
Reviewing the log file, the change occured when I received a
German-written spam. Neither the header nor body show any unprintable
characters.
I tried using that German email again (just by chance) before writing this
to run some spam tests. This time, Folder: assigned itself to the test
conditional I provided (different from the first). Additionally, now the
log files records fewer entries. Instead of having a complete "procmail:
No match on" list, it only shows a couple of those. Something in that
German email did something.
How do I undo it and make procmail happy again?
Thanks.
Scott
