Already did that. That's how I came up with the first version of my /etc/procmailrc. I am going to steal a few lines from your attached procmailrc recipe. I still don't quite understand the locking concept in procmail, and regex, let alone writing my own rules. Need more time... Well, I

what does you config look like? Do the first lines of each rule make sense? Or does procmail think you are listing two lock files? You can typically go without the lockfiles. On Fri, 5 Apr 2002 11:36:48 -0500 Douglas J Hunley [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Friday 05 April 2002 01:54,

yes. cut-and-paste error. was fixed a moment ago. this looks like you have a comment in the file that procmail doesn't realize is a comment... when working as a global procmail, where should I put these lock files? /var/lock? and is it necessary to use those so-called locallockfiles? does
