I created the maildir structures manually, using the command:
$ mkdir -p ~/mail/<new-maildir-name>/{cur,new,tmp}
I am getting errors of the following variety:
Delivery error (command maildrop 20225 error (75, /usr/bin/maildrop:
Unable to create a dot-lock at computer/20225.0.cromwell.))
maybe its a permissions issue on your maildirs?
Here is my "~/.mailfilter" file:
DEFAULT="$HOME/mail/nondescript/"
### flagged by SpamAssassin
if ( /^Subject:.*SPAM/ )
to spam
in procmail, you'd put a / after the destination to use it as a
maildir, maybe you need that in maildrop? maybe its trying to create
an mbox called spam with a directory already exits and that's causing
problems.
just a .02 guess.

Hi, Andrew.
Since I wrote the message, I've made a little progress; it turns out
that the locking error message (unexpected, inasmuch as I am using
maildirs) disappeared once I defined
MAILDIR="HOME/mail"
and then included "$MAILDIR" in the expression in the "to" statements:
to $MAILDIR/computer/mutt
Once I have everything checked out thoroughly, I'll post a report to the
list. At the moment, I'm trying to figure out why an OR condition in
several of the patterns appears not to work as advertised.
I shall look over your examples shortly. Thanks!
