This directory is the home of a Procmail FAQ.

As most actively maintained documents, it is always more or less "under construction".

Procmail FAQ
"Main Course"
Procmail mailing list resources
Stuff related to the Procmail mailing list at Aachen.
The list is run on the SmartList system and the help files here are mostly the default SmartList ones.
Incidentally, SmartList just happens to run on top of Procmail.
Files from the Procmail distribution
These files are here for easy reference, but might not be the newest versions. The autoritative source is http://www.procmail.org/ which also has e.g. a complete unpacked source tree for Procmail and SmartList.
Local copies of the following files are kept here:
