Jason, I didn't see that there (as posted) but I suspect I'm
overlooking some really obvious stuff. I've searched gmane's cygwin
group on this and I see you've posted on this several times and are
running these tools yourself successfully.
I wondered if you could post a simplified summary of your setup and
proceedure you used to set it up?
For example; is it no harder than simply running fetchmail and setting
up a ~/.procmailrc? Does fetchmail pass mail to procmail by default
or if it sees a procmailrc.. etc.
I'm just kind of blind about how to start with this. On my linux/unix
setups I always called procmail in the the sendmail.cf file. And
fetchmail knew to pass to sendmail on port 25...
On my windows setups I don't know how windows gets mail; and there is
no sendmail.cf invovled so that avenue is out.
