[NTLUG:Discuss] Procmail

[Richard Humphrey]

Well that is exactly my problem. I have the following in my
/etc/procmailrc but it doesnt work right because procmail is running as
non-root user.

I get cannot write to /var/log/procmail.log errors and
cannot write to  /var/spool/mail/sharedspam errors.

DROPPRIVS=yes
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log
ABYSS=/var/spool/mail/sharedspam
VERBOSE=on
FORMAIL=/usr/bin/formail
SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail

#Spamassassin start
:0fw: spamassassin.lock
| /usr/bin/spamc

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$ABYSS

#Spamassassin end

okay, then put this in /etc/procmailrc :


LOGFILE=/var/log/proc.log
SPAMDIR=/var/spool/mail/sharedspam

:0fw
* < 256000
| /usr/bin/spamassassin

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$SPAMDIR

That *should* do it, provided your permissions are correct and all the
directories exist.
