Make sure the user has read/execute privilege in his homedir.
Yup, the home directory is listed properly in /etc/passwd and the user owns the directory which is perms 755.

I think this might have happened a few years ago when I did an install of dspam which had it's own procmail file. I looked at the procmail date and it was June of last year which I would expect was an update.

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     mail        80064 Jun 12  2007 procmail

So I don't think the procmail executable is the wrong one. As best as I remember, the way dspam did this was to point to a different procmail executable from within sendmail which I have long ago removed. Some piece of junk must be laying around somewhere. I'm not having this problem on any other server and then on this one only in the root user directories and not the subusers for that domain, which is the reason for /var/www/user and /var/www/user/homes/subusername

Now for how the heck to track this one down..... I love whacko when it gets really old and resurrects its ugly head months or years later!

Thanks,

I have one box, a 3.x box, that has a problem finding procmailrc files.

For instance, if I have a .procmailrc file in /var/www/user/homes/username it finds it and it works.

If I have a .procmailrc file under /var/www/user it doesn't.

Where the heck is the setting for where procmail looks for user procmailrc files?

Thanks,
