Your .procmailrc looks quite right if I understand you correctly. Stuff which matches ^To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ought to end up in the file djtaz01 and Procmail should stop processing there. Are you sure these rules are being invoked and the save to file is successful? The log should look something like this (just ignore the settings for DEFAULT and MAILDIR, obviously. Maybe try including SHELL= though): $ echo 'To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' | procmail -m /tmp/.procmailrc procmail: [13237] Sun Oct 19 19:37:52 2003 procmail: Assigning "SHELL=/bin/sh" procmail: Assigning "DEFAULT=/dev/null" procmail: Assigning "MAILDIR=/tmp" procmail: Match on "^To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=djtaz01" procmail: Opening "djtaz01" procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock Folder: djtaz01 25 BTW you should probably not much with PATH and SENDMAIL unless you know their values are wrong for your system. Other than that, if the To: header does not contain exactly one space and the string "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" after the colon, the regex will not match, but you probably knew that already (^; but in any event you might actually want to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead).
