I have tried all the options and changing the chmod of the dir, still procmail doesn't work with SA. I have sendmail running, procmail installed as well as SA, could it be a problem that the actual mail doesn't reside in the /home/user dir? Do I need anything special in the .procmail dir? With my new files: p5@riptide[~]# cat .procmailrc VERBOSE=no MAILDIR=$HOME/mail PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail :0fw | spamassassin -P :0: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes caughtspam p5@riptide[~]# cat .forward "| spamassassin || exit 75" Thanks -----Original Message----- From: mpd [mailto:mpd@rochester.rr.com] Sent: Monday, April 22, 2002 7:14 PM Cc: Adam M Ryan; questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: procmail and spamassissan On Mon, Apr 22, 2002 at 07:48:55PM -0400, mpd wrote: > Please don't remove the cc: to questions.

I think PATH needs to be defined before this rule. And here I go responding to my own mail. Ignore my advice above. I was thinking of something else. The lack of a PATH in the procmailrc proves that. > > > > > As from the log I think it looks at the .forward, but doesn't do awhole lot > > of good, hehe > > Yeah, you need to use the .forward if your MTA doesn't use procmail > as its LDA (none do by default that I know of.) > This one is true, though. > > > > Also from the FAQ I see that you need those :0fw lines at the top. > > Not true.

I might be wrong on that, but it definitely *doesn't* need to be at the top. As long as it's before any of the rules, it's fine. > > > > > > > Thanks a lot for the help, anything else you can think of? > > Nope, but here's my *entire* .procmailrc file, which is working fine. > > > --- begin > > VERBOSE=no > MAILDIR=$HOME/mail > PMDIR=$HOME/.Procmail > > :0fw > | spamassassin -P -a > > :0: > * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes > spam > > INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/lists.rc > > --- end > > > > > > Adam > > > > The rules can also be put in their own .rc file, which should > be included before any other rules.
