Right on the button Craig! I turned on verbose and logging and look what I found: procmail: Locking "/tmp/passthrough.lock" procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/tmp/passthrough" procmail: Opening "/tmp/passthrough" procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock procmail: Unlocking "/tmp/passthrough.lock" procmail: Executing "spamc" procmail: Bypassed locking "/var/spool/mail/klinebl.lock" <----- procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/var/spool/mail/klinebl" procmail: Opening "/var/spool/mail/klinebl" procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock procmail: Notified comsat: "klinebl@377431:/var/spool/mail/klinebl" Subject: Database backup Mon Apr 15 16:30:00 EDT 2002 Folder: /var/spool/mail/klinebl 346236 Now all I have to do is figure out why. Thanks very much for your help Craig.
