Hello,
I am trying to setup my email to use fetchmail/procmail/mutt, in order
to do this i took suresh's .muttrc file, made a simple .procmailrc
file and ran fetchmail with the option to use procmail as the mda.

promail worked in the sense that i can see the inbox file in my
$HOME/mail directory, and can even view it's contents using vim. but
mutt refuses to open the file. if i rum "mutt -f mail/inbox" from my
home directory i get the message that mail/inbox is not a mailbox
file.

so what i want to know is wether my method of using procmail is
screwing up somewhere, why is mutt not able to open that file, and if
i do not use the 'mda "/usr/bin/procmail"' option in fetchmailrc then
i do not even know where my mail goes to since /var/spool/mail/mario
was not getting updated after running fetchmail without the mda
option.

Thank You,
Regards,
mario
