Hello everybody,
I am having serious trouble with exim and procmail.
procmail 3.21.20011028
exim 3.32-2
Both packages are from testing.
The mail get's passed to exim, and here's what it's got to say. I am trying to
send a mail to myself ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
This is the telnet session
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 tulkas.suzuki.home ESMTP Exim 3.32 #1 Fri, 30 Nov 2001 20:05:20 +0100

What is going on? I checked out the lines in exim.conf concerning procmail, I
recreated the configuration file with eximconfig, I didn't touch the config!
--exim.conf
# This transport is used for procmail
procmail_pipe:
driver = pipe
command = "/usr/bin/procmail -d ${local_part}"
return_path_add
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
check_string = "From "
escape_string = ">From "
user = $local_part
group = mail
# This director runs procmail for users who have a .procmailrc file
procmail:
driver = localuser
transport = procmail_pipe
require_files = ${local_part}:+${home}:+${home}/.procmailrc:+/usr/bin/procmail
no_verify

Please, somebody help me! I am becoming crazy! Oh, and please CC any replies to
my emailaddress [EMAIL PROTECTED], I am not subscribed to the list. Thanks.
Alex
