If you're using aan mbox spool (all messages in file), then you can use this simple command (from /usr/share/doc/procmail/QuickStart) to filter your mail whenever you want: cat <spool_file> | formail -s procmail Of course, you'll have to make sure that none of your procmail rules try to deliver mail back into the spool file (from whence they just came, otherwise you'll be screwed. -rob
