How do I use procmail:
Several manual pages, covering procmail operations are available online, and on the web:
procmail(1) -- general description, overview
procmailrc(5) -- resource configuration file format
procmailex(5) -- sample .procmailrc files, examples, etc.
procmailsc(5) -- weighted scoring technique, for use with procmail
Please keep in mind, that procmail is already installed on the system, you do not need to install it, nor do you need to alter your .forward file. procmail is being invoked automatically as a local mail delivery agent, every time a new message arrives. So, all you need to do is customize your .procmailrc file in your home directory to your liking.
The structure of procmail recipes may not be trivial. Please keep in mind that incorrectly configured procmail rules may result in some or all of your mail bounced or discarded, so take extra caution. We will not be able to restore lost mail.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
