I want to filter my mail on the server side. My two options are procmail and

I don't know. Here's a mail I got from Mr. Sam (the author of maildrop) today:

Whenever I use procmail, I pipe mail to safecat for Maildir delivery.
Works like a charm.
Greetz, Peter.
Could you please send me an example .qmail file how to use procmail + safecat
with qmail?
I'm also using vmailmgr but I probably can figure out that part myself

Okay... It seems my problem was due to use of switches I didn't need and not

Still I have two questions about ezmlm:
1) how do I add a bunch of addresses to a list (locally or remotely)?
I tried 'ezmlm-sub /home/test/lists/testlist temp' where temp
Could someone recommend me a good mailing list software that works fine with
qmail and has a web based admin interface?
First I thought about mailman but after reading it's README.QMAIL I am a bit

I am using vmailmgr-based virtual domains on my Qmail system.

/home/virtudaldomain1/users/user1/.qmail and put the following line there:

After that I sent a message

You copied the script into /usr/bin/ !
Change the call and it will work !

When I opened the scripts they had the windows ^m character at the end of

When I open the file in pico or vim, I don't see those characters.
With what program do I find and remove the characters?

Is checkattach a shell script. If yes check the first line in the script and

e.g. if you have a perl script the first line would be

It is a /bin/sh script. And, yes, I have it installed.

I got it finally working vmailmgr. Here's what I did:
Opened the script in pico, copied the contents and saved it to another text
file. I suppose it removed the ^M characters (how did they end up there, were
they there orignally or did Netscape just add them, dunno).
Then added these lines
