The *only* way I know of to "loose" mail via procmail is to direct to /dev/null. You have the mail somewhere. Your recipe is faulty and probably did not handle the mail from mutt-users, * ^TO.*[email protected] there is usually a [space] after "TO" in the header which you have not allowed and the ".*" will consider that and others. I prefer: * ^Sender:.*mutt.org (not used by all mailing lists) but "^TO.*" will work fine. * ^[email protected] even better see man procmailrc man procmailex -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
