1] To find out if procmail is on your system and what the full path to
it is, type one of the following commands:
Shell Command
===== =======
csh which procmail
sh or ksh type procmail
various whereis procmail
various where procmail
Make a note of the full path to procmail because this is needed in
step 5b below. You can find out the version by typing:
procmail -v
The latest released version, as of 15 April 1995, is 3.10.
Version 3.11 should be out soon. If your system doesn't have
procmail or doesn't have the latest version, you may want to ask
your system administrator to install it. The procmail package of
tools is at:
ftp://ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/packages/procmail/procmail.tar.gz
If your sys admin isn't able to do this, use a different mail
processor like mailagent (described in section 3 of this FAQ) or
filter (described in section 4).
