Generating a file is trivial. Generating the correct file in the correct location so that it is included from the correct procmail file (but not the wrong procmail file!) is not trivial. We have lots of lists, and each list has lots of procmail. That's why the ideal approach does not involve generating procmail. Ean is discussing with listmaster@ to generate script(s) to implement such an interface. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com America was far better suited to be the World's Movie Star.
