Hi folks. I can't get procmail to filter mail. Here's the story. I'm migrating mail from a debian box to my FreeBSD box. I simply stole the .fetchmailrc and .procmailrc files from the debian box and put them in the home directory of the FreeBSD box. Both of these files were fully functional with the debian box, so I think they are ok. Then I installed procmail using the ports collection... Finally I made a .forward file with the line "|exec /usr/local/bin/procmail || exit 75" .... I put this .forward file in my home directory. With this setup procmail just loses all incoming mail, and some mail is not even fetched because it says it cannot resolve the domain of the sender. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas out there?
