(Sorry, this is really a procmail question, but it relates to how I use SA.
Does that make it okay to post here?)
I get email for lots of different email addresses: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.
Consequently, I tend to get lots of duplicate spam. I was away from my
email for 3-4 days over the long holiday weekend just past. When I
returned, I found over 850 messages in my spam folder. I figured I could
profitably remove duplicates, so I tried adding an extra filtering step
after deciding a message was spam. The SA-related chunk of my .procmailrc
file now looks like
# SA may have already seen this message on mail.mojam.com
:0H
* ! ^X-Spam-Status:
{
:0fw
| spamc
}
:0:spam.lock
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
{
# it's spam - is it a duplicate?
:0 Wh: msgid.lock
| formail -D 8192 $HOME/tmp/msgid.cache
$SPAM
}
That last procmail rule had been
:0:spam.lock
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$SPAM
If it's a duplicate I just want to drop the message, otherwise stick it in
$SPAM. That's not happening. All spam seems to be missing my spam box.
Obviously, I've misunderstood something about formail -D and procmail. Any
clues appreciated.
Thx,
