If your MTA (sendmail or exim or whatever) is trying to use procmail
then it should be logging a "suspicious rcfile" error somewhere.
Procmail will refuse to run if it thinks there's a possible security
issue.
Try

  chmod 600 .procmailrc

and see if that fixes anything.

Hi again,
Martin McCarthy: In responce to your email. Procmail is not being invoked
and as you asked the permissions of the home dir is drwxr-s--- and of the
procmail file -rwxrwx---
Rob Schneider: Procmail does use the $HOME variable how ever this is correct
and showing the apropreate home directory.
Kyle Gordon: Thanks for your reply but im using Postfix as an SMTP server
and am not sure how it impliments the procmail program.

What are the "not working" symptoms?

For example, is procmail being invoked but the mail is being processed
wrongly?  (In which case, what's happening that's wrong?)

Procmail isn't being invoked and your mail is all ending up in the
default mailbox?

Procmail isn't being invoked and all your mail is vanishing?

What does your procmail log say if procmail is being invoked?
What does your system maillog say if procmail isn't being invoked?
What are the permissions on both your .procmailrc file and your home
directory?

*snip*

A thought which might be off target: Does you procmail scripts use the 
$HOME environment variable, and is this variable correctly changed to 
reflect the new $HOME locations?

The Alcatel PCI Speedtouch card doesn't. Well, there is a bloke who has had it running after a recompile of RedHat 7.1. A page to look at is here, but I couldn't figure it out for my Mandrake distro.

Re: [Scottish] Pcomail Failing

2003-06-23 Thread Kyle Gordon
Would this not be a configuration option within your mail server? In my 
exim.conf file, I have 

procmail:
  driver = localuser
  transport = procmail_pipe
  require_files = 
${local_part}:+${home}:+${home}/.procmailrc:+/usr/bin/procmail
  no_verify

I would imagine (for Exim at least) you would insert the /users/ directory 
into the require_files directive, and it should all automagically work again 
:-)

Kyle

As expected, can confirm that SLUG/EdLUG do _not_ have reciprocal
agreements with UKUUG.

Also seems that you have to join UKUUG (£41) on top of that, unless
you're already a member, or member of Unix user group with reciprocal
arrangement with UKUUG. I doubt very much if SLUG/EdLUG are in that
position. I've asked UKUUG to let me know for sure. Will pass on their

Re: [Scottish] Buying new Hardware - Advice

2003-06-23 Thread Matt Lowe
My only comment would be how many ram slots does the new m/b have for
each type of memory?

If you are only using 2 sticks of 133 at the mo, you would normally be
ok, but if you have a combination of more than that, it might not all
fit on the m/b :(
Also remember that if you want to upgrade your memory, then you will
have to ditch ALL your 133 stuff for DDR (you cant run both types at
once)  :(
