hi :) i am a university student, currently in final year final semester. i am doing my final project now. i face some problems when i start doing my project. so, i would like to ask some questions. i really hope that u can help me.
i have started to explore linux since a few months ago. recently i try to use fetchmail and procmail in linux. i already prepare the needed files, such as .procmailrc and .fetchmailrc. but there is still some problem i face. belows are my questions: 1. first, i prepare all the files need, such as "~/.procmailrc" , "~/.forward" and "~/.fetchmailrc". i put "|exec /usr/bin/procmail" in file "~/.forward". then i try to send an email to myself. but the email was returned. the error message said something that sendmail dont support this command "|exec /usr/bin/procmail" in file "~/.forward". so, what do u think is the problem? is it because the new version of sendmail dont allow forwarding? 2. do u know fetchmail? when i log in as root, i type "exec fetchmail", then the screen disappear, and nothing seems happen. then when i log in as user A, i type "exec fetchmail", it starts checking and download email from pop3 server. in both home directory i already prepare the same ".fetchmailrc" file. so, is it means fetchmail cannot be run in root? 3.1 more question. when i type the commands at terminal, such as "exec fetchmail", the screen of terminal disappear. is it means that the command cannot be executed? that's all for now. thank you very much for spending your time to read this email. thanks a lot :) regards, hweefarn __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
