For me, the following works well. But I changed it only a few days ago and it may be incorrect. I got it from some kind of procmail-doc (don't remember exactly) ---snip--- 'local' part of /etc/smail/transports local: driver=pipe, from, local, +inet, -uucp, return_path, unix_from_hack; cmd = "/usr/bin/procmail -d $($user$)", user=root ---snip--- Anyhow many users here recommend "exim". I'd like to know, what makes exim better before I try it, because smail works very well. Regards, Mika -- Mika Fischer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
