Hi There

I have something really strange going on with my mail. I have 7 users on my machine who all use pine, a .forward file, and a .procmailrc

There mail all gets to them, but mine does not... for some unknown strange reason which I can not resolve myself. Included is a copy of one of the users .forward file and mine. Here is a users...

"| IFS=' ' && p=/usr/local/bin/procmail && test -f $p && exec $p -Yf- || exit 75 #natasha"

and here is mine:

"| IFS=' ' && p=/usr/local/bin/procmail && test -f $p && exec $p -Yf- || exit 75 #ryan"

[donald] /home/ryan # ls -la .forward -rwxr-xr-x 1 ryan wheel 112 May 29 08:15 .forward

[donald] /home/natasha # ls -la .forward -rw-rw-r-- 1 natasha guest 91 May 21 15:22 .forward

included is a copy of my .procmailrc
