-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 To partially answer myself...I have fetchmail, postfix, and procmail working - or at least, procmail is partially working. I have a recipe that checks to make sure an email isn't from anyone in my email address or from any of the lists that I am a member of, then it is supposed to check to see if the "X-Spam-Status: Yes" header exists and, if so, pipe the message to /dev/null.
The first part is working. The expert list and others are not getting processed by spamassassin. The problem is the second action, to pass spam to /dev/null. I generated a fake spam message and have been using it by sending it to myself. It gets processed by spamassassin and my kmail filters properly identify it as tagged spam and dumps it in my trash folder. I shouldn't even SEE the message, however, because I thought I had procmail setup to dump such mails to /dev/null. Here's a synopsis of the first working procmail recipe: :0f * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * !<someone>@att.net * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * !<someone>@purdue.edu * !<someone>@yahoo.com * !<someone>@msn.net * !<someone>@yahoo.com | spamc -f This works. Mails from the expert list or from any of the particular emails listed do not get processed by spamassassin. The second recipe is: :0fH: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes | /dev/null I have tried several different variations of this with regards to the :0f entry. I have tried :0f, :0fw, :0fW, and so on to no avail. How do I get procmail to use this second recipe? praedor On Monday 06 October 2003 02:48 pm, Praedor Atrebates wrote: > I am not real up on procmail filter writing (or the cryptic language of > procmail).
