I haven't the faintest idea how to go about filtering spam. Seriously, I have
no clue how people do it.
But my most immediate question has to do with handling mail that is sent BOTH
to you, and to a mailing list (doesn't matter which is to: and which is cc:) I
want to get this mail in my inbox but also in the list box. This is what I
have so far: (only OCLUG group shown)
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/kiyan
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail #you'd better make sure it exists
LOGFILE=$HOME/log/procmail.log #recommended
:0c
* (^To:|^Cc:).*kiyan\@
* (^To:|^Cc:).*oclug
$DEFAULT
:0
* (^To:|^Cc:).*oclug
OCLUG
:0c
* (^Subject:).*<>

Right now this sends a carbon copy of all mail that is BOTH to/cc me AND to/cc
the list, to my inbox... and the next recipe sends it off to the list box. The
only thing is, because of the addressing facts, I obviously get TWO copies
(one from the listserver, and one directly to me). So I end up with a
duplicate in my inbox and the listbox.
How do I handle this more elegantly?
