Package description for 'procmail'

The procmail mail processing program.

 Can be used to create mail-servers, mailing lists, sort your incoming mail
 into separate folders/files (real convenient when subscribing to one or more
 mailing lists or for prioritising your mail), preprocess your mail, start
 any programs upon mail arrival (e.g. to generate different chimes on your
 workstation for different types of mail) or selectively forward certain
 incoming mail automatically to someone.
 
 Procmail can be used:
         - and installed by an unprivileged user (for himself only).
         - as a drop in replacement for the local delivery agent /bin/mail
           (with biff/comsat support).
         - as a general mailfilter for whole groups of messages (e.g. when
           called from within sendmail.cf rules).
 
 The accompanying formail program enables you to generate autoreplies, split
 up digests/mailboxes into the original messages, do some very simple
 header-munging/extraction, or force mail into mail-format (with leading From
 line).
