Thanks smitty

I can't answer for the clients, since I'm a moz man, but I would have thought the place to do this would in any case be procmail (assuming you are running your own mailserver or have access to a home directory at

Nope don't know how

Sir Robin

proc I can find but where are the rc files kept ?

[Assuming Aron is not taking the piss]


You need two things: a file called .procmailrc and a directory called .procmail (you coud call it anything, but this is a common name). These go in your home directory if you're running your own mail server, or your home directory on your ISP if you're not. The .procmailrc file tells procmail what to do and looks something like this.

SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash # Change if bash is somewhere different
FGREP=/usr/bin/fgrep # Again, this may need to be changed.

#Set on when debugging
VERBOSE=off

#Your mail directory
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail # Could also be "Mail"

#Directory for storing procmail log and rc files
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail

#Log file
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log

#Recipes
INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/rc.testing
INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/rc.mail

Your procmail recipes go in rc.mail inside the .procmail directory. rc.testing is for when you need a sandbox for playing around with new recipes. There are plenty of sample rc.mail files around on the web with useful recipes.
