Subject: fetchmail, procmail, mutt
Hi everyone,

I am trying to setup fetchmail to get my email from the server, procmail
to sort my email, and mutt to read my email. So far, fetchmail appears
to work. It gets the mail and puts it in /var/mail/username. I believe
that the next step is to have procmail sort it into mailboxes. I have
created a .mail dir in my home dir. I attached a copy of the .procmailrc
file that I have written. It does not appear to work. Can someone tell
me what is wrong with the config file. Any other comments or suggestions
are also welcome.
