The procmail issue is very specific; apparently it affects only messages addressed to me at my business domain. The vanishing messages from gte.net, a company with its own domain, linkedin.com, the mail log summary, and the netgear security notices are all addressed to [email protected]. Every message to a mail list is sorted -- and delivered -- by procmail to the proper mbox file. Mail addressed to me at my personal domain is plopped into that mbox file. This leads me to believe that the problem _might_ be related to /var/spool/mail/rshepard. Except ... I do see new messages in my INBOX. For example, messages from the Slackware mail list in the UK sent to me yesterday appeared there. So they were processed by procmail to the default /var/spool/mail/rshepard. Permissions for /var/spool/mail/rshepard are 660 and it's owned by rshepard.mail. I just now added me to the group 'mail'. So, I need help from you folks vastly more experienced than I at tracking down subtle bugs and system glitches. What information about system status can I provide? What tests could I run?
