Curious, I also use RH 6.2 and mutt always transfer var/spool/mail/ to
~/Mail. Maybe a MTA/MDA problem in your default configuration?

Hmm, I also use RH 6.2 and I'm not sure the problem comes from your
procmailrc.
+Which MTA do you use ?
Sendmail or postfix use procmail as default MDA. If you don't use them,
then I think you should write the following lines in your .fetchmailrc :
defaults mda "formail -ds procmail"

Here I don't think that MAILDIR is necessary, as the location has been
already defined at bottom. My procmailrc works and looks like this :
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
VERBOSE=off
LOGFILE=$HOME/.log-procmail
:0:
* ^[EMAIL PROTECTED]
IN.mutt-users
I didn't need to set Procmail as default MDA in fetchmail, but it has
been defined in sendmail's config.mc :
FEATURE(local_procmail)dnl
Bye (and sorry for my very bad english :)
PS : thanks to people who spoke about those options :
macro index G "!fetchmail\n"
macro pager G "!fetchmail\n"
I didn't know them and it works fine. I'm very happy :)
