Hi,
I've been using mutt for a while and am now trying to set up procmail
to filter mail from some mailing list addesses. Some are traditional
(i.e. mail I get has the mailing list address in the To: field) and
some are not (mailing list address in the From: field).
I'm not sure if what I have read in the manual and online regarding
filtering recipes is incorrect or incomplete, or if I am just missing
something somehow. I was hoping that maybe someone can on
this list might be willing to help. I am pretty much exhausted from
reading every procmail guide I could find over the last three days, but
still no good results. Many published variations have failed me.
This is using procmail v3.22 2001/09/10 on OS X tiger via MacPorts,
with MH mailbox format. Currently my .procmailrc looks like this
(but at the moment all the filters are commented out, otherwise everything
ends up in the mailbox "bhakti").:
# .procmailrc
#
DATE=date +%Y-%m
SHELL=/bin/sh
VERBOSE=no
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/.procmaillog
LOG=""
MAIL=/Users/indi/mail/.

If anyone has any helpful suggestions, I'd be most grateful.
