Adam -- ...and then Adam Bogacki said... % % Hi, Hi! % % I have attached the last part of my ./home/adam/Mail/procmaillog % [I don't understand why the last month is October rather than November % 2003] which seems to indicate a problem with 'msgid', possibly % explaining why outgoing mail is not being delivered, and why mail is not % being put into designated folders by procmail. % % Excuse my naivete', but why is 'msgid' locked ? 0) procmail very rarely gets involved when sending but instead only when receiving 1) it doesn't necessarily say that the month is October, but instead as far as I can tell that the dates on the last couple of messages you got were in October, which could be because of clock maintenance problems or simply because you don't get a lot of mail going through procmail 2) so how do you send your mail through procmail, anyway, and have you checked to see that you really do what you think you do? 3) it's particularly difficult to divine your .procmailrc contents just from the output of procmail, but I bet that you have something like # put the Message-ID: in the cache to dedupe :0 Wh: msgid.lock * ! ^From:.*davidtg.*justpickone | $FORMAIL -D 16384 $HOME/.procmail/.msgid.cache in there to remove duplicates. Note the colon line; msgid.lock is specifically called as the name of the lock file to use (and the locking is to avoid having more than one process doing something at a time, which in this case is writing to the msgid cache) 4) you'd probably get much better answers, and will certainly get much more interest, on the procmail list :-) % % See below.
