I'm trying to use Procmail on my Sendmail/Cyrus server.
I'm using cyrus-imapd-2.2.12 and Sendmail 8.13.3on Freebsd 5.4, and want
to use procmail-3.22_6.
I couldn't find much information on the web on how to use procmail. My
main objective is to get bsd vacation working - and this requires procmail.
I need vacation because my webmail Horde needs it (cannot use sieve).
The only information I can find is :
http://subwiki.honeypot.net/cgi-bin/view/Freebsd/SendMailAndCyrus?skin=print.pattern
And the O'Rielly IMAP Management book. But both are not very clear.
Has anybody installed and configured Procmail on a Sendmail/Cyrus server?
Care to share your experience and a How-To?
Thank you very much in anticipation.
The simplest method is to make sendmail deliver messages via standard local
mailer and use ~/.procmailrc to redirect messages to cyrus using "deliver"
program from cyrus package.
There are multitude of cyrus&sendmail integration methods.
A few are described at: http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/#cyrus
e.g. it is possible to select cyrus mailer *after* alias and ~/.forward
expansion. It will allow users with OS account to use procmail for
processing recived messages. Users without ~/.forward file and existing
corresponding cyrus mailobx will get their mail delivered to cyrus mailbox.
