Re: [Wlug] Procmail Question

by Peter Gutowski

According to the man page the second ":" is optional, i.e. :0: but, as a sample of something known to work (from the SpamAssassin sample .procmailrc) it does use the above syntax. Here's the example: # Mails with a score of 15 or higher are almost certainly spam (with 0.05% # false positives according to rules/STATISTICS.txt). Let's put them in a # different mbox. (This one is optional.) :0: * ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* mail/almost-certainly-spam The above *does* work on my system (RHL8.0). So maybe the second ":" is not optional all the time? HTH, Peter On Friday, November 8, 2002 8:45 AM, Marc Hughes <HughesM(a)tomsnyder.com> wrote: >I have a procmail question....

Procmail Question

by Marc Hughes

I have a procmail question.... I have this rule: :0 * ^From:.*hughesm@tomsnyder.com test That doesn't seem to work. But this rule... :0c * ^From:.*hughesm@tomsnyder.com test ... Works just fine ... But I want the first rule, I don't want it to copy (what the :0c does) I want it to move (:0) Am I doing something wrong? Thanks! -Marc

I haven't seen the new edition but I have the 2nd, and while it's a certainly good book I think that the purple book is more comprehensive. Hell, it has four authors! -- Gary

[ rant/history lesson deleted for those with slow modems :-) ] For the curious, the quotes were indicating a direct quote from (the top of) http://www.cygwin.com Perhaps not the best choice of wording... considering all the individuals (besides Red Hat/Cygnus) who have helped make cygwin possible.

Re: [Wlug] gnome desktop menus?

by Baris Hasdemir

hi again, This is strange because gmenu is one of the core programs of gnome. But you can do this way too. those entries on the panel are some .desktop files and here is what Internet/Galeon.desktop entry has in it: penguen@penguen:~$ cat /usr/share/gnome/apps/Internet/galeon.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=Galeon Comment=Galeon Web Browser Exec=galeon Terminal=0 Type=Application Icon=galeon.png penguen@penguen:~$ Name and Exec entries are enough, though. simply creating a .desktop file in the directory (in my case /usr/share/gnome/apps) will put a new entry on the panel menu. best wishes, baris On Thu, 7 Nov 2002 17:40:21 -0500 (EST) Bill Mills-Curran wrote: > Baris, > > I can't find any gmenu command or file in the Red Hat distro. > > Thanks, > Bill >
