Note: Please CC me, I am having problems with the email addrs subsribed
to the list

I am trying to setup fetchmail and procmail so that I can get mail from
two email accounts
and diliver that to my debian box into to subfolders under ~/Mail.

exp.
fetchmail user@abc.tld -> user@local via exim
fetchmail user@xyz.tld -> user@local via exim


Here's my .fetchmailrc (suitably doctored) for collecting from two ISP's

set postmaster "glyn"
set nobouncemail
set properties ""
# next line when uncommented sends output to maillog -
#  set syslog

 poll mail.uklinux.net with proto POP3
user "aaardvark" there with password "xxxxxxxx" is aaardvark here options stripcr warnings 3600 

 poll pop.freeserve.net with proto POP3
 user  "glyn@mill29.fsnet.co.uk" there with password "xxxxxxxxxxx" is glyn here options stripcr warnings 3600



procmail for user@local
send mail for user@abc.tld to ~/Mail/abc/inbox
send mail for user@xyz.tld to ~/Mail/xyz/inbox


In your .procmailrc file insert the recipes
:0: * ^TOuser@abc.tld /home/Mail/abc/inbox and :0: * ^TOuser@xyz.tld /home/Mail/xyz/inbox 



That should do the trick.

HTH,

Glyn M
Thanks. that seams to do the trick. Just had to modify it since I only have one userid (by choice) Only problem is with crossposted emails, they all end up in my first mailbox... 
Is there a way to make fetchmail add headers? (e.g. X-Source: abc.tld)

Thanks,
Jim
PS. sorry about the return addrs, my exim addrs masq filter seams to be on the blink.
