Procmail question/puzzle
The following procmail recipe was copied form a blog about how to set up Debian/Exim/Procmail/Mutt to use Bogofilter. It is intended to do a first cut at getting rid of junk that confuses Bogofilter, and appears just before the recipe that pipes incoming mail through Bogofilter. But I can't figure out how it works (or even if it does work). It may just be garbled in copying somewhere along the trail from an original good idea to a hadly formed helpful hint on the internet. (Procmail does have its own special tweeks to reg. expressions.) In its original form it had a particularly infelicitous name for the action file, which I have changed, but otherwise what you see is GUI window cut and paste form the internet. Does this make sense? Explain, please. ## 'unreadable' mail :0: * 1^0 ^\/Subject:.*=\?(.*big5|iso-2022-jp|ISO-2022-KR|euc-kr|gb2312|ks_c_5601-1987|windows-1251|windows-1256)\? * 1^0 ^\/Content-Type:.*charset=(.*big5|iso-2022-jp|ISO-2022-KR|euc-kr|gb2312|ks_c_5601-1987|windows-1251|windows-1256) unreadable_ ## bogofilter spam filtering: :0fw | /usr/bin/bogofilter -eplu Also, this is a regexp.

Bit of a Strange IMAP/POP3/Procmail Question
Hi all, I've got a bit of a strange question in relation to IMAP, POP3, and Procmail. My mail server here at home currently running Debian Sarge uses a combination of fetchmail, sendmail, and procmail to deliver email to my local accounts. I have done nothing with procmail, so everything gets delivered to /var/mail/username. Currently, I'm using qpopper to allow my clients to retrieve mail via pop3 and dovecot-imap to allow me to access mail via horde2/imp remotely. I tried to move to dovecot-pop3 tonight instead of qpopper, but dovecot has mysteriously disappeared from Sarge... Anyway, what I really want to achieve is to have two of the mail accounts delivered to /var/mail/username as they are now, and have the other four accounts delivered to $HOME/mail or whatever the correct maildir usage would be. I've done google searches etc., but I think I'm searching for the wrong information as I'm sure it's out there somewhere. Can someone point me in the right direction? I'm hoping to end up having the two accounts in /var/mail accessible via POP3 for the two Windows clients here at home, and then the other four accounts accessible via IMAP so I can read them whereever I am, via horde2/imp, via thunderbird, or whatever. If anyone can just show me where to look for some procmail recipes or appropriate pop3/imap servers to use that would be great.

A couple of possibilities come to mind. A line looking like: From [EMAIL PROTECTED] is used to seperate different emails. If it's being removed you will have problems. The other thing is that the mbox format is picky about certain things, like trailing empty lines. Look at the actual file and find out what doesn't look right and then fix your procmail action accordingly.

procmail doesn't understand mime so there is no way to tell it delete
attachments which end with .vbs. however what you can do is use a rule
like the below one. we've been using this rule since the virus came out and
it's been working pretty well (caught almost 500 copies of it).
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
LOGFILE=/share/etc/procmail.log
:0:
* ^Subject: ILOVEYOU
/share/etc/ILOVEYOU
:0:
* .*name=.*\.vbs.*
/share/etc/ILOVEYOU
:0
* 5
{
:0 B:
* .*(name=.*\.vbs|[EMAIL PROTECTED]).*
/share/etc/ILOVEYOU
}
if you make /share/etc/ILOVEYOU a directory procmail will deliver each
message to a seperate file in that directory. the 5 means that for
messages which fail the above header check it only scans the first 50k of
the body for matching text.

viewing pdf from mutt - procmail question?
I can view pdf attachments from mutt if they have mime headers like Content-Type: application/pdf; name=file.pdf However I get quite a few emails with Content-Type: application/octet-stream Does anyone have a reliable way for modifying the Content-Type and changing octet-stream to a useable type (pdf in this case)? The Content-Type: application/octet-stream may appear before or after any of the fields that provide the filename. I'd like to add something like this to my procmail recipes. Here's part of an example: Original: = Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=_Turnpike_)xJ'3b(WKj+12e_BWEyqXn(zJrIAHoTE0,HCnc/7 X-Mailer: Turnpike Integrated Version 4.02 U YrzOEMMwYk3QO8OuteX9u6dtFP X-UIDL: ed016b1b488649da6b0ef2351ce0 Status: RO Content-Length: 1296074 Lines: 16853 This is a MIME message --_Turnpike_)xJ'3b(WKj+12e_BWEyqXn(zJrIAHoTE0,HCnc/7 Welcome to Issue 17 of Incisor, a newsletter created by Click I.T.

You have chosen wisely. I switched recently and can't imagine using anything else. Is it possible to have it run automatically when new mail arrives without the need for every user to have his .forward set to |/usr/bin/procmail so only having a .procmailrc fur users that want it? The first paragraph of the procmail manpage says: Procmail should be invoked automatically over the .forward file mechanism as soon as mail arrives. Alternatively, when installed by a system administrator. It looks like you can set it up to automatically run for every mail that arrives (regardless of what people have or have not done to their .forward files) and just not DO anything unless they have a .procmailrc. Is this what you were asking? -Michael -- Michael Stenner Office Phone: 919-660-2513 Duke University, Dept. of Physics [EMAIL PROTECTED] Box 90305, Durham N.C. 27708-0305

Of course, you just need to set up your mta to use procmail. The exact way to do it vary of course. That should be given in either the mta's doc or procmail doc. -Lex pgpVVWF8LX0QK.pgp Description: PGP signature

Most MTAs support the use of an external delivery agent - a program used to perform the actual addition of the mail to the recipient mailbox. If you make procmail this program then the right thing should happen.

Re: procmail question (was: looking for a mail client)
Sorry, I can't quote since I've deleted the original posting. All I used to do when I used Procmail was add a line to my .fetchmailrc so it looked like this: poll pop.ukgateway.net protocol pop3 username gsmh password mda /usr/bin/procmail -d gsmh The last line specifies the Mail Delivery Agent. If you simply want to hand all incoming mail to, say Exim, you can leave this line off and exim will automatically receive the mail. Your .procmailrc will contain rules to sort messages into folders. As an alternative to 'username whatever' you can have 'username whatever is someothername on this system' which makes things a lot easier if your username on your Linux box is not the same as your email name. -- Phillip Deackes Debian Linux (Potato)

A tip for people who are still using zless: If you have already upgraded your system to hamm, place this line in your .bash_profile: eval $(/usr/bin/lesspipe) /usr/bin/lesspipe is a filter for less that decompresses .gz files and gives you useful information about a lot of other file formats (among which .tar and .deb). Look at the script itself for details. If you have Debian 1.3.X or earlier I can send you this script. It is not large and quite useful. I don't know which version of less is required, but I know it works with the less package in Debian 1.3. Remco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I think his question was I have mail I already received, how do I get it filtered? The answer: formail, a program that comes with procmail. Basicly, you will move oyur /var/spool/mail/user file to a temp file, rm the /var/spool/mial/user, and then cat the temp file throuch formail, which will remail it all. Look at formail(1) for the command line options.
