How funny - but how true.
I constantly back up my customers machines to my network - so that I can
scan'em for bugs, burn cd's of their stuff, yadda yadda yadda - but when
it comes to MY stuff, well, I never do anything. As a matter of fact,
last week when I made my complete move to MDK  on my primary box, I
SWORE that I was going to setup a backup to another partition or to the
network so that if I do crash'n'burn again, I'll have a backup - but
still ain't got around to doing it.

At least it's great to know that I did get my procmailrc back (have
heaps of editing to do to it) - thanks to Kaj - maybe I oughta start
posting my entire ~/home/mynamegoeshere directory to the list?

And he climbed with the lad up the Eiffelberg Tower.  This, cried the Mayor,
is your town's darkest hour!  The time for all Whos who have blood that is red
to come to the aid of their country! he said.  We've GOT to make noises in
greater amounts!  So, open your mouth, lad!  For every voice counts!  Thus he
spoke as he climbed.  When they got to the top, the lad cleared his throat and
he shouted out, YOPP! 
And that Yopp...  That one last small, extra Yopp put it over!
Finally, at last!  From the speck on that clover their voices were heard!
They rang out clear and clean.  And they elephant smiled.  Do you see what
I mean? They've proved they ARE persons, no matter how small.  And their
whole world was saved by the smallest of All!
How true!  Yes, how true, said the big kangaroo.  And, from now
on, you know what I'm planning to do?  From now on, I'm going to protect
them with you!  And the young kangaroo in her pouch said, ME TOO!  From
the sun in the summer.  From rain when it's fall-ish, I'm going to protect
them.  No matter how small-ish!

Hmm. Once I tried procmail and lost a lot of mails as well :(. If you
don't set the .procmailrc correctly it can be problematic.

Hmm. I didn't think you could send email without a Message-ID.

Anyway, I finally got around to installing SpamAssasin, which 
si also purported to be very good at catching spam.

There are ways of sending messages without a message-ID - tools that
spammers use have that ability mate.

You can still use a really good /etc/procmailrc along with SpamAssassin
- you can never have enough protection. It's like wearing two rubbers!

[newbie] Procmail recipes drive me nuts

2001-10-29 Thread Paul

Hi all,

I am fighting with procmail, and am on the wrong end of the battle.

What the . is wrong with these recipes. They don't work.

Set up of the environment:

DEFAULT=$HOME/sylmail/inbox/.
MAILDIR=$HOME/sylmail/
LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log

This one is supposed to catch all newbie mail and move it to the MH folder
Lijsten/Newbie

:0
* ^To:.*newbie
Lijsten/Newbie/.

(After looking at the headers I see a Delivered-To:. Could that be the wrong
one?)
Changed it to
:0
* ^Subject:.*\[Newbie

Let's see what happens when I get this back.

This one should send a mail sent to Things on to my work and then store it in
Lijsten/Things (also an MH folder). Things is identified by [Things] in the
subject:

:0
* ^Subject:.*\[Things
{
   :0 c
   ! paul.kater@myjobs-email.com

   :0
   Lijsten/Things/.
} 

And procmail just sits there and catches nothing.
What am I doing wrong? Must be something really dumb...
