I'm using procmail just fine at my site. I think that the "recommended"
.forward is:

quotes and all (of course, substituting your username for USERNAME.) I that

This is especially annoying since kbd is in base, and so dselect is going
to pretty well force the installation of svgatextmode on all debian
systems.

I have a BBS that runs in dos but can access POP3 and SMTP mail. I would
like this BBS to receive email as a sub-domain of my server. IE.
