Subject: Mail Filtering with Broadband Date: Wed, 02 Mar 2005 16:27:27 +0800 Message-ID: <20050302082727.BAE3D20862@heisspf> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-ID: <12796.1109752047.1@skyinet.net> Sender: linux-newbie-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux Problem solved. I still used the pid of pppd which is obsolete now. Hi, I get my mail with getmail and I am using procmail for mail filtering and it has worked well with my dial-up modem connection. Now with the broadband connection it seems to miss some of the entries in .procmailrc such as: :0 wc:${MAILDIR}/$LOCKEXT * ^From: * $^From:${GETTEXT} #| echo $FOO >> ~/Frommail | echo "From: ${MATCH}" >> ~/Frommail :0 wc:${MAILDIR}/$LOCKEXT * ^Subject: * $^Subject:${GETTEXT} | echo "Subject: ${MATCH}" >> ~/Frommail Which then shows me on a small xterminal what mail is coming in, and most important my blacklist LOCKEXT=.lock :0 Whic :$BLACKLIST$LOCKEXT | (formail -x received: -x X-Envelope-From: -x Message-id: -x from: -x sender: -x reply-to: -x return-path:| fgrep --quiet --ignore-case --file=$BLACKLIST) # :0 Wa /dev/null The filtering into various mail boxes of the mail program exmh is still working properly. I have not touched .procmailrc since changing to broadband. Could is be that the mail comes in too fast now or what else could be the reason?
