mail filters
Hi, I am trying to setup mail filters on my domain that is on a virtual host. I have a copy of TPJ #18 (Summer 2000) and have read the article about mail filtering. The problem I am having is finding out where to put the .forward or .qmail file to direct mail to my script. I have attempted to use find on the server without any luck. If anybody has any input. I would appreciate it.

This is what I am putting in the text file: |/home/gerleren/test.pl Where test is a test script copied from TPJ that should kill only specific email addresses (not the exact duplicate of TPJ chuckmail but based on it). Is that correct? The mail server is exim. dunno. i use procmail and sendmail. here's what i put in my ..procmailrc file: :0: * | /home/fliptop/bin/filter.pl this is off topic for a cgi mailing list, perhaps you should try another more appropriate list? maybe [EMAIL PROTECTED]? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
