Easiest would be to put in the following lines into you procmailrc : VERBOSE=on LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail/log.`date +%m-%y` and then look through your log files. I also take the additional precaution of archiving my mails and their headers *before* any of the recipes. So, just in case a recipe fails (you never know), I always have my mails in my archive file. > Does anybody have any ideas what might be the cause or > how to investigate? You could also look through the Message-Id headers to see if it some weird loop. Though, by the look of it, there doesn't seem to be any. pv. -- Prahlad Vaidyanathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What, me worry ? http://www.symonds.net/~prahladv/ Don't Panic ! --
