> It's not clear what you want, here. Maildir delivery doesn't involve
I'll explain my goal in detail. We run a NIS+ environment here but my
machine (Linux box) is standalone. I make it as autonomous as possible
like running a secondary DNS server etc. No I want to move my mail off
of our hub and onto my machine.
I am running qmail 1.03 and want to use Maildir. The idea is this: My
mail gets forwarded from the hub to my local machine. procmail filters
my mail into various mail boxes (two words so I don't lead anyone to
believe I am referring to a particular format) like inbox (mail that
doesn't fit any other category), linux, mutt, qmail, security etc
(various mailing lists). When I start up mutt I want it to go straight
to the "inbox". I also want to use Maildir which means (to me) that
_each_ of the above mentioned mail boxes will be a Maildir with a cur
new and tmp subdir, like so:
~/Mail
/inbox
/cur
/new
/tmp
/linux
/cur
/new
/tmp
/security
/cur
/new
/tmp
Finally, if possible, I want deleted messages moved to a trash mail box.
Here are some of my configs:
/var/qmail/rc:
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start ./Mailbox sh -c 'accustamp | \
cyclog -s 500000 -n 10 /var/log/qmail'
~/.qmail:
|preline /usr/local/bin/procmail
~/.procmailrc:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/log/log.`date +%y-%m-%d`
SHELL=/bin/sh
:0:
* ^(From|Cc|To).*mutt.*@mutt.org
mutt/
:0:
* ^(Subject).*test
test/
~/.muttrc:
set folder=~/Mail
set mbox=+inbox/
set mbox_type=Maildir
set spoolfile=~/Maildir
I have been screwing around so much now that my configs are probably all
screwed up. Right now, if I send mail to myself, it gets delivered to
~/Mail/mark/ (a Maildir) _and_ /var/spool/mail/mark. If I attempt to use
a procmail recipe like the one for a Subject of "test", it does not
work. The message still gets delivered to ~/Mail/mark/.
