Re: [tlug] Help With Mutt/Procmail/Fetchmail Configuration

[s4565@example.com]

I added a link in /etc/smrsh to procmail

 ln -s /usr/bin/procmail /etc/smrsh/procmail

but I still get the error

May 10 00:48:28 ringo sendmail[2330]: g49EmRv02329: g49EmSv02330: DSN: /home/antony/.forward: line 1: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #antony"... Address <antony@example.com> is unsafe for mailing to programs

Any ideas?

Cheers

Tony
