Only problem with this idea is the fact that I use procmail heavily to
sort incoming emails. I'm sure I can get it to work without procmail,
but then I get upwards of 500 messages a day in my inbox. A REAL pain to
sort out! I use procmail to deliver things to separate folders.

Hi guys
If I could add some further info here. Kirill Dan is trying to get Exim,
Procmail and TMDA working together. I didn't answer earlier because I
don't
use Procmail but I have sucessfully got Exim 4 & TMDA to work together -
and Dan I agree there is not much info on the combination yet :-)
Some points:
* Dan got his environment setting from TMDA website setting for Exim but
he did
mistype one part missing a $. But my setup below, using same environment
setting from website works fine.
* I am interested to clarify this (also because there is not that much
info on
using Exim 4 with TMDA) the Exim spec doc says that environment is a
string
which is expanded to colon separated list of values so shouldn't mine
below be
OK? It is working correctly.
Dan why don't you try out Exim -> TMDA functionality without procmail to
see
if it works OK then plug procmail back in? Can't help you on the
procmail side
but happy to help with Exim/TMDA.
Cheers
