LOGFILE=$HOME/Mail/procmaillog
	# I don't think this needs to be in your Mail folder,

SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail 
	# As with formail, tells procmail where to look for
	# sendmail. If sendmail isn't there, mail transfer

# I think this is the thing that most people who finally get   #
# procmail want to know about: how to get different messages   #
# from different mailing lists into different folders. This is #
# where all that MAILDIR stuff comes from. All the folders I   #
# name in here are all created off whatever directory I filled #
# in as the MAILDIR at the start. And no, they don't suddenly  #
# appear the instant you edit this file. They only appear when #
# procmail finds mail that should go in them.                  #
#                                                              #
# You can have more than one recipe sending email into the     #
# same folder, btw, yes.                                       #

# General useful (?) comments:                                 #
#	The "^Resent-From: " pattern works wonderfully on      #
#    lists which generate it.                                  #
#	Making the folder not -quite- the list name means you  #
#    can save mail from it to a folder named for the list. Can #
#    be handy.                                                 #
#	Some lists are indeed a pig to catch everything with.  #
#	"TO" is different from "To" and you mustn't put a      #
#    a space after "TO". It catches "To: " and "Cc: ", I       #
#    think. Very handy. But it doesn't catch everything. If    #
#    it's a mailman list, don't use it and see below.          #
#	Mailman-run lists all seem to have a Sender: header    #
#    which is very useful to sort with. Just add -admin onto   #
#    the name of the mailing list.                             #
#	Even more useful for mailman-run lists turns out to be #
#    "X-BeenThere: listname@site.com"                          #

# This is what I consider advanced stuff: this  #

#                 Splitting digests                            #

# You don't need to do this, but this seems to be another very #
# popular thing to do with procmail. If you're on mailing      #
# lists using the digest option, sometimes you may want to     #
# split the digests back up into the original emails. There is #
# (of course) more than one way to do this:                    #
#                                                              #
# (1) don't bother: just read through all the digest in one    #
# big lump. Simple, easy, and great until you find someone     #
# sent a 500-line postscript file or a giant jpg which got     #
# included into the digest :(                                  #
#                                                              #
# (2) use a mail-reader such as mutt, and if you suddenly want #
# to split a digest up, then whilst reading the message, hit   #
# 	| formail +1 -ds                                       #
# which will put the results into your main inbox. If you want #
# it in a particular folder (like the one you're reading), do  #
#	| formail +1 -ds >> foldername                         #
#                                                              #
# (3) make procmail (or formail, actually), split it up ready  #
# for you to read.                                             #
#                                                              #
# So if you want to have each digest automatically split up    #
# by procmail as it arrives, and to read each message          #
# individually, then here's some examples of what you can put. #
# The first two lines are exactly the same. The third one has  #
# a pipe (vertical line) symbol at the start, and then the     #
# command you're piping it through.                            #
#                                                              #
# Yes, I picked a notoriously heavy-traffic one for the first  #
# example... And it -should- work, but it's not a list I read, #
# sorry!                                                       #
