Fwd: [SAtalk] SA + procmail are blocking non-spam mail

2002-05-07 Thread M. Brownsworth
Is the following line from the non-spam procmail log entry a clue? procmail: Bypassed locking "/var/mail/mdb.lock" Should it be able to lock my mailbox file? And what are the implications if it can't? .\\ichelle >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >From: Michelle Brownsworth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subj

2002-06-04 Thread M. Brownsworth
Suppose a recipient wanted a message that had been marked as spam by mistake, intercepted, and archived. Is there a way to deliver this specific message to the recipient, preventing it from being intercepted again? It would involve circumventing spamd's scanning this message so that it can b
