RE: Help needed setting up simple procmail setup

2009-09-09 14:01:41
This problems had me frustrated yesterday but I finally did achieve some
success. If I added my included to the /etc/procmailrc file instead of in
the users /.procmailrc everything worked as expected. I don't know why that
made a difference by my vacation.rc file which is in the same directory as
it was before now gets read and executed. 

So here is my /etc/procmailrc file

# Logging
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
PMDIR = $MAILDIR/.Pm
PMSRC = $PMDIR
VERBOSE=ON
LOGABSTRACT = all
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/.Pm/procmail.log
VERBOSE=ON
LOCKFILE=$MAILDIR/.Pm/lockmail
MONAT=`date +%b-%Y`
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=$HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
DATE = `date +%B-%Y`
DROPPRIVS=yes
VERBOSE=ON
:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamassassin
:0
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$HOME/mail/Junk 
INCLUDERC = $HOME/rc.vacation
DROPPRIVS=yes
VERBOSE=ON

Before the DROPPRIVS, not the user is running.
So above lines are in the wrong order.


As well I have this .procmailrc file in my home/user/ directory

MAILDIR=$HOME/mail/

Normally, your $MAILDIR should not end in a slash.


LOGFILE=$HOME/log

Here you are unnecessarily switching log file.
