Thanks :-) You need to recreate a From_ line (or, I suppose, just delete that email and make the next item's From_ line be first). If you use mutt_dotlock to lock the file, then you can [probably :-] safely edit the file, find the next From_ line, and yank it up to paste it at the head. That should get you going. % why it worked at FIRST, then got hosed later. But how it got % hosed is what I don't understand. I'm trying to get fetchmail+ % procmail+Mutt to work, and I was playing around with filters AFAIK fetchmail will very happpily write mbox files. Furthermore, ... % and then, suddenly, Mutt started giving me that message...I % still didn't have procmail even close to working, I think. % I wonder if something in there hosed it up. My procmail % config currently has this in it: % % MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail/ ... % % :0 % * * % Inbox ... it looks like you're not even dropping into /var/mail/sean but into your ~/Mail dir Inbox file. BTW, you can declare DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/Inbox above your rules and then skip this last rule, too. :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
