Hmmm.
Pleased to be of help :-) By the way in this stanza: :0: * ^Subject:.*aardvark Aardvark/ you do not need the second ":" in ":0:" The second ":" says "create a lock file so that nothing else interferes with writing to the target file" You don't need that with maildir, because nothing else will have reason to write to the file. You need it for mbox, because its a folder in one file, and all sorts of programs may access the mbox, including procmail making the next delivery. > > > -- > gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list > -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
