Ah, good old procmail. "... and now you have two problems."

My thoughts exactly.

Of course, the replacement I use -- Courier Maildrop -- isn't much more forthcoming on the logging front. At the very least, though, it doesn't claim that it has actually delivered any of my mails when it most certainly has not. That allows me to periodically re-enable my filtering script, only to receive absolutely no mails. During this period, I flail around in the log file, finding nothing, then try to figure out what's breaking the configuration, then disable it again and sigh with relief as all of my test mails are delivered.

It's actually almost time to try again, in the vain hope that I'll actually be able to have server-side filtering again someday.

Not going back to procmail, though. No way, no how.

Although it did actually kind of work, now that I think about it...

Must. purge. impure. thoughts.
