Hey Nancy/All,
Thanks for getting back to me - this isn't a huge problem, but it's been
driving me mad. I should better explain my setup:
- accessing pine (and mailboxes) directly - ssh'ing into the server (i.e.
no IMAP)
- server is running QMail
My procmail recipe is as follows:
-----------<cut>----------------
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
SHELL=/bin/bash
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/ # elm users might use $HOME/Mail instead
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail/log
VERBOSE=off
:0fw: spamassassin.lock
* < 256000
| spamassassin
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*
$HOME/mail/almost-certainly-spam
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$HOME/mail/probably-spam
:0
* ^^rom[ ]
{
LOG="*** Dropped F off From_ header! Fixing up. "
:0 fhw
| sed -e '1s/^/F/'
}
:0:
$MAILDIR
-----------------</cut>--------------
Let me know if this helps at all: most of the documentation I've found
either relates to sendmail, and the QMail docs I found didn't seem to work
with my setup. I'm sure I'm just missing something obvious, but feeling
myopic after staring at this for so long.
Again, thanks for any help.
Best Regards,
Brad

This might be caused by:
* your MDA (often procmail) delivering to the wrong mailbox format
* pine accessing the mail via local file access rather than imap
* procmail's missing "F" in From_ header problem
Are you able to access the mailboxes using another client? The
first thing that I'd do is set up pine to access the mailboxes
via IMAP and see if that solves the problem (assuming the system
is running an IMAP server). Also look at the Procmail recipe that
delivers the mail and see what mailbox format it's delivering to.
mailbox means unix mbox
mailbox/ means maildir
mailbox/. means mh
Make sure it's using a format that your IMAP server knows how to
serve.
