Hi there.
For most of the time i was using fetchmail, smail and procmail for
my private workstation to handle all the mailing lists (MLs). Just
out of curiosity i started using exim as my MTA and... wow... i am
impressed. It's much easier to configure than smail/sendmail, is
still lightweight (allways a concern for me), has a RBL spamfilter
included and you can also filter your you emails with it so i was able
to purge procmail from my computer.
My opinion right now? I tried some, but exim is for sure the best
solution to handle your private email.
This is what replaced my ~/.procmailrc:
# Exim filter
if error_message then finish endif
if $h_sender: matches "owner-(.*)@" then
save Mail/inbox.$1
elif $h_x-mailing-list: matches "([a-z0-9\-]+)@" then
save Mail/inbox.$1
elif not delivered then
save Mail/inbox
endif
Much more readable even if you see it for the first time.
