Fetchmail sends mail to port 25, and postfix sends it (pipes) for local delivery to procmail. The postfix configuration is as set up by YAST2 on a clean 8.1 install (commented by me on another mail, thread "a way to get more verbose logging from the postfix procmail maildrop ?", dated: Wed, 28 May 2003). With exactly the same recipe files (procmailrc) I had under suse 7.3 and sendmail, procmail stopped working right away under 8.2 and postfix. The problem was that it could not read "/etc/procmailrc" as user nobody.
I used Yast to set procmail as the postfix MDA, and to start spamd, and used the example procmailrc file for spamassassin, and it virus scans the mail I have being fetched with fetchmail as well as checks for spam. /etc/procmail is root.root 644, works like a charm. I don't know why yours didn't work. I only used Yast. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Web Address: http://www.mydestiny.net/~joe_morris Registered Linux user 231871 God said, I AM that I AM.
