Well, there's one good thing about the flood of messages this list gets: it convinced my to get off my lazy arse and get postfix/procmail/cyrus working so I don't have to sort by hand! :)
O.K. Tell us how you did it. Are you using sendmail? If so, how is sendmail configured to work with cyrus and procmail? Chuck

ok... I'm using postfix, not sendmail. Here's what i did: In /etc/postfix/master.cf I added
procmail unix - n n - - pipe
flags=R user=cyrus argv=/usr/bin/procmail -t -m USER=${user} EXTENSION=${extension} /etc/procmailrc
Then in /etc/postfix/main.cf I un-commented
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -t -a "$EXTENSION"
and changed
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/file/name
to
mailbox_transport = procmail
Then I created /etc/procmailrc thus:
### # # Master Procmail Recipe for Postfix > Procmail > Cyrus # ### DELIVERTO="/usr/cyrus/bin/deliver" USERINBOX="$DELIVERTO -e -a $USER -m user.$USER"
# # OPTIONAL: Include users' own .procmail recipe files # INCLUDERC=/home/$USER/.procmailrc
# # Last but not least, deliver mail that falls through to the user's INBOX # :0 w | $USERINBOX
And finally, in my home directory i created my own .procmailrc file like this:
# My Rules
:0 w * ^TO.fedora-list | $DELIVERTO -e -a $USER -m user.$USER.Lists.Fedora
:0 w * ^TO.redhat-intall-list | $DELIVERTO -e -a $USER -m user.$USER.Lists.Redhat-Install
:0 w * ^TO.xfree86-list | $DELIVERTO -e -a $USER -m user.$USER.Lists.Redhat-XFree86
Restarted postfix and Voila! All my RedHat-related mail is presorted!
