Hi, I'm trying to setup procmail to deliver my mail but I continuously receive the following errors in my log file. procmail: Locking ~/Mail/Lists/FreeBSD-Questions.lock procmail: Error while writing to "~/Mail/Lists/_YmHxxx.gardnerbell.ca" I do receive my mail but it always ends up in the default location that I have specified. In my .procmailrc file I have the following environment variables: MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail DEFAULT=$HOME/Mail/received PMDIR=$HOME/.procmailrc LISTFOLDER=$HOME/Mail/Lists SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail This is the recipe that fails to acquire a lock :0: * ^(From|To).*freebsd.org ~/Mail/Lists/FreeBSD-Questions The permissions on my Mail and Lists directory are set to drwx------ Any help to resolve this is appreciated. TIA Gardner Bell
