I use fetchmail to fetch mail from my POP account and use procmail to deliver it to my local maildir (~/Maildir/inbox/). All with cygwin on Windows NT. In my .fetchmailrc there is a line: mda: 'procmail -m D:/home/.procmailrc' which calls procmail and passes the filename of my .procmailrc to it. Without this procmail fails, telling me that /var/spool/mail/Administrator could not be created -- but I don't use 'Administrator' as my login name ... In my .procmailrc I have one rule to deliver all mail to my inbox: MAILDIR=D:/home/Maildir :0 $MAILDIR/inbox/ HTH -Stefan
