[06-18-03 09:36]: Can anyone tell me how to enable the procmail package supplied with 8.2, to work alongside fetchmail and postfix? I can't see anything in YaST
man fetchmail there are 4 references to procmail
So, if I change my fetchmail invocation to fetchmail -d 600 -m /usr/bin/procmail -f /etc/fetchmail.conf that should work OK? The fetchmail man page suggests adding "-d %T" to the end of the procmail invocation, but is this needed if my procmailrc ensures that all email is directed to the relevant users?
I was wondering whether there was a way of persuading YaST to do this, but I guess not.
(Thanks for Patrick for his tip, BTW, but I think I'd be better replacing postfix with procmail as local MDA - no need to use more apps than I need.)
