Have you opened .procmailrc and resaved it? You should get a prompt that a previous version exists and then ask you what to do, <ie> keep, save, or overwrite. Do you have two versions, one with a .lck or similiar in the directory where your procmailrc is? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
