Thanks Joe. I'm not running a mail server, just trying to cut down on some
of the overhead when Kmail calls spamc by using fetchmail > procmail. I've
done some more reading while waiting for replies and find that if I run
fetchmail -m procmail this will call procmail, which I've been able to see
happen while watching running processes.
But, now I see another problem. fetchmail picks up, apparently procmail
runs spamc, because looking in /var/spool/mail[chris] at the msg I can see
the spam check. I can see and read the msg in /var/spool/mail[chris] but
now mail isn't comeing into my inbox when I run my local mailcheck with
Kmail :( Here are the headers of a msg:
