I've never had any trouble getting procmail setup and working .. in
many years of using it and thru many different versions of linux,
including gentoo.
Now on a newish gentoo host I've been setting up that host to retrieve
mail. Its running sendmail procmail and fetchmail.
When I retrieve mail with fetchmail ... procmail never process it.
I have .procmailrc of many years standing including many changes of
course. But nothing is happening with procmail at all.
No lines appear in .procmail.log and all mail lands at
/var/spool/mail/$myUSER
I've had so little trouble with procmail that I cannot even think how
to figure out what is happening.
head of .procmailrc below:
#shell-script-*--
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
SHELL=/bin/sh
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME
MAILDIR=$HOME/spool/in
LOGABSTRACT=ALL
LOGFILE=/home/reader/t/var/log/procmail.log
LOG="$(echo
START
Processing <$FILENO>)
"
VERBOSE=YES
PSCRIPTS="/projects/perl"
SCRIPTS="/home/reader/scripts/"
[...]
Even if I have screwed up rule... I should at least see something in
procmail.log right?
show "mda" for fetchmailrc
re sendmail, is it really sendmail or are you running postfix
