Could you run "dos2unix .forward .procmailrc". I don't know, if the ^M are
bad, but better remove them.
Add the line
VERBOSE=on
to the beginning of the .procmailrc.
Then retrieve mails and check:
1. is /home/cpopescu/mail/logfile empty ? If not: what does it say?
2. Mails from the debian-user list will go to /home/cpopescu/mail/debian
Does this file exist? Does it have content?
3. Other mail (non-debianlists) will go to your mailspool.
Check this with:
mail -s testmail cpopescu
a test
.
This testmessage should be appended to your mailspool.
tail /var/spool/mail/cpopescu should show it.
Ciao,
Martin
