hey all, i recently tried going back to some procmail scripts i had before
and am getting the follow error:

thats cuz there is no /var/spool/mail
$MAIL is set to $HOME/Mailbox
none the less, if i mkdir /var/spool/mail, and ln -s $HOME/Maildir
/var/spool/mail/$USER, it says it's a bogus file and renames it. 
so i went back and set some vars in $HOME/.procmailrc:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH
ORGMAIL=$HOME/Mailbox
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
DEFAULT=$HOME/Mailbox   #completely optional
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/procmail.log

:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| formail -D 8192 msgid.cache

:0:
* ^From.*xs*
/home/xs/xs666


nothing much wrong there. heres $HOME/mail/procmail.log:
>From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon May 10 18:25:27 1999
  Folder: /home/xs/xs666
348

(14:29:12)(xs@rhino)(~/mail)$ echo $MAIL
/home/xs/Mailbox

(14:29:58)(xs@rhino)(~)$ cat ~/.qmail-test1
|preline procmail

? any ideas?
