RE: [vps-mail] Procmail rule help
Sorry to keep pounding on this procmail rule but the WellsFargo.com mail is
still not being diverted from the spam folder. I'll post three items: (1.)
the latest rules I'm trying, (2.) the headers to an email that's getting
nailed, and (3.) the log file results.
(1.)
Here's the first four rules I have at the very top of my procmailrc file,
most of which I'd assume should catch the email:
//#1 Rule
LOGFILE=$HOME/wellsfargo.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=no
COMSAT=no
:0:
* ^From:.*wellsfargo\.com
/var/mail/clientmailbox
//#2 Rule
LOGFILE=$HOME/wellsfargo2.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=no
COMSAT=no
:0:
* ^Received:.*@graphnet\.com
/var/mail/clientmailbox
//#3 Rule
LOGFILE=$HOME/wellsfargo3.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=no
COMSAT=no
:0:
* Return-Path:.*@graphnet\.com
/var/mail/clientmailbox
//#4 Rule
LOGFILE=$HOME/wellsfargo4.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
VERBOSE=no
COMSAT=no
:0BH:
* @graphnet\.com
/var/mail/clientmailbox
(2.)
Here's the headers of one of the slippery messages:
Received: from smtp6.graphnet.com (smtp6.graphnet.com [195.90.50.6])
by blarney3.blarneystone.com (8.13.1/8.13.1) with ESMTP id
j52FL8Ws020354

(EDT)

(3.)
Log files wellsfargo.log and wellsfargo2&3.log files have nothing in them.
Log file wellsfargo4.log has this:
procmail: Lock failure on "/var/mail/clientmailbox.lock"
procmail: Error while writing to "/var/mail/clientmailbox"
procmail: Lock failure on "/var/mail/clientmailbox.lock"
procmail: Error while writing to "/var/mail/clientmailbox"
Why would the lock not work? Is that what is wrong?
Thanks,
Jim Smith
