hey there,

I'd like to set up simple mail account on my box to act as a mailing
list for one ofm y classes. So if someone writes to
[EMAIL PROTECTED],
the mail is automatically frwared to a bunch of people.


This should be simple, right?  I tried writing an od-fashioned
.forward with a bunch of mail addresses in it:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]


That's exactly how I maintain a simple mailing list. I use sendmail though, not exim :-P
Is .forward a sendmailuancy?



but the mail doesn't seem to land anywhere. Is there a relatively
simple way to do this? I believe I'm using exim, though I haven't
really messe with the mail delivery system for a year.


Well, I should say that I receive most of my mail via getmail and that
it gets filtered through procmail. I thought that at one time I had
to write a .forward file "|/usr/bin/promcail" but I find that my main
account doesn't HAVE a .forward.


Do you have a .procmailrc? I think it's a lot more powerful than a .forward
