The rules also needed to be changed...the ".*" means "zero or more characters". > How do i make it work? First i run fetchmail to get the mails, and then > when running `procmail' the xterm stops... Secondly, you need to set up a .forward that sends all incoming mail through procmail automatically. Mine looks like: "|exec /usr/bin/procmail" That's it...just one line. This makes procmail look at each piece of mail that comes in. good luck, J
