How do I get Procmail and Netscape to cooperate?

0

Netscape is not good about file locking and you will find that it forgets which messages have already been read every time Procmail appends to a folder. (Peter B. West has diagnosed this in some detail.) You can use Procmail to tag messages and use Netscape’s filtering capabilities for the last mile or e.g.read your folders over IMAP and let Procmail deliver to the IMAP server instead. (suggested by Mike de Laine). Netscape’s JavaScript filtering capabilities are allegedly not all that bad, if you can find the documentation.
