I am running sendmail on my localhost. It dumps my mail in

I would like to use evolution as my MUA. Can someone help me with the
syntax for the procmail filter to move mail where evolution can find it,
and where I should point evolution in Tools | Mail Setting | Receiving
Mail | server type & configuration in order to read the filtered mail
spool?

If you're replacing pine completely, use server type: Standard Unix mbox
spools, and set the path to the mbox pine's been reading from. You won't
need to change anything in your procmail script.
