I am using spamassasin in .procmailrc (unix account).
my question is about .procmailrc:
is .procmailrc synchronized? I mean, if two new mails are coming to my
accout, will the first .procmailrc script execution finish before the
second execution will start?
I am trying to do something so the order is very importent.
This seems more like a question for a procmail mailing list than this one,
but oh well. procmail executes once for each message it processes, so you
could have more than one procmail process running concurrently. If you are
concerned that one action is finished before the next begins, use file
locking. For instance, here's an entry from my file where I execute ClamAV:
:0fw: clamailfilter.lock
| /usr/local/bin/clamscan-procfilter
That way, even if more than one procmail process is running, ClamAV will
only be running for one of them at a time.
