On a similar note, if you use MH-style mail folders, something like this: DEFAULT="| rcvstore +inbox" (with a properly set PATH, of course) Once I actually set about in earnest today to convert my .procmailrc to .mailfilter format, I was amazed how easy it turned out to be. My one remaining little bug-a-boo is with maildrop's logging; it wants to overwrite the log on each invocation instead of appending. Still no clue how to fix that. But otherwise, the transition was really a breeze, and is working just fine. -- Conrad J.
