What's the best way to configure procmail for delivering the mails in the right maildir folders of evelution. I would like to keep the procmail setup for delivering to the different maildir folders PatrickI'm using fetchmail, procmail (plus a whole buncha extras) to snag my POP3 stuff and I've been mostly using mbox - works fine - and so does IMAP, or even if you configure it to grab from your local box as POP3 - either which. It'll still get grabbed and dumped...
IMO, mbox with imap is the way to go, because it maximizes your ability to change mail programs with low fuss - so much so that you can run a bunch of mail programs more or less concurrently, without folder conversions (EG, evo when you have it, mutt when all you have is Xless ssh, and maybe that other thing you wanted to try out for a week too). However, evolution's imap support leaves a bit to be desired... But I use it anyway. That means restarting evo from time to time (at least I guess the need for restarts is imap-related - anyone know for sure?). -- Dan Stromberg DCS/NACS/UCI <strombrg dcs nac uci edu>
