I just noticed that procmail on my workstations has died. Suddenly, and
unexpectedly. I was looking at mail in my in box this morning and noticed
that it should have been in another folder.
So I check the procmail.log, and the last time it was edited was on June 29th.
Two weeks ago or so.
I haven't installed anything new on the machine... that I know of at least.
My .procmailrc hasn't changed, and the permissions are just fine.
[timh@r2d2 timh]$ ls -la .procmailrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 timh timh 2125 Jul 10 07:11 .procmailrc
But it's not making an edit to the $HOME/mail/procmail.log that it's told to
do in the headers of the .procmailrc.
PATH=/usr/bin/procmail # Procmail Path
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail # You'd better make sure it exists
DEFAULT=/var/mail/timh # Default mailbox
LOGFILE=/home/timh/mail/procmail.log
LOCKFILE=/home/timh/mail/.lockmail
Since it seems sendmail sends mail through procmail, and then it's filtered,
instead of having to create a .forward like is needed in FreeBSD and other
UNIX OS', I was thinking maybe I need to restart sendmail. Yet there's no
sendmail in /etc/init.d/ like there is for postfix.
Has anybody run into this? Or have an idea of how to resolve this?
