--- Begin Message ---Package: procmail Version: 3.22-4 Severity: normal According to the formail man page: -n [maxprocs] Tell formail not to wait for every program to finish before starting the next (causes splits to be processed in parallel). Maxprocs optionally specifies an upper limit on the number of concurrently running processes. I issued the following command: $ formail -n 20 -s procmail < mbox.in With this command, I expect that formail will parallelize the execution of procmail, but will not execute more than 20 instances at once. Instead, it basically fork bombed: $ ps aux | grep -c procmail 106 $ ps aux | wc -l 283 (Each instance of procmail spawns another process) formail should work as documented. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Kernel Version: Linux tandu 2.4.18-rc4 #10 Fri May 17 21:25:08 PDT 2002 i686 unknown Versions of the packages procmail depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone
