More strangeness....
I now have mail being forwarded to my machine from our hub. However it
is being spooled on /var/spool/mail/mark. Here is my /var/qmail/rc:
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start ./Mailbox sh -c 'accustamp | cyclog -s 500000 -n 10
/var/log/qmail'
Which would normally deliver to ~/Mailbox only my ~/.qmail:
|preline /usr/local/bin/procmail
runs it through procmail. My procmail is the Maildir capable version and
my ~/.procmailrc is (shorted for clarity):
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/log/log.`date +%y-%m-%d`
SHELL=/bin/sh
:0:
* ^(From|Cc|To).*mutt.*@mutt.org
mutt/
So mail from the mutt list(s) should get dumped into ~/Maildir/mutt/, a
Maildir format mail box which should be created by procmail as needed
no? No joy so I created the mailbox myself and what now? here is a
listing of ~/Maildir/mutt/:
signals:~/Maildir$ ls -l mutt
total 11
drwx------ 2 mark users 1024 Jun 16 15:00 cur/
-rw------- 1 mark users 3633 Jun 16 15:03 msg.ZA4B
-rw------- 1 mark users 3989 Jun 16 15:10 msg.aA4B
drwx------ 2 mark users 1024 Jun 16 15:00 new/
drwx------ 2 mark users 1024 Jun 16 15:00 tmp/
signals:~/Maildir$ ls -l mutt/new/
total 0
Those 2 funny looking files are messages from the mutt mailing list,
presumably dumped there by procmail.
I am all $&@^ed up.
Mail still being spooled on /var/spool/mail/mark. Wasn't there something
about procmail delivering to there regardless of the .procmailrc? Would
I be better off just going to maildrop?
