Neither that file nor that directory existed anywhere under the only /etc that I can see so I created them and retested this. It still doesn't work. I've burned too much time on this already. I'm done.

Thank you very much for taking a look at this, I'll give your suggestion a try. The latest reply on the help desk ticket confirmed my suspicion that exim could be configured to support this better, but I don't think there was an attempt to do that. Since exim.conf is not writable by me this is my only option assuming I can do it with ftp or filemanager. I seriously doubt if cpanel would ever support a feature like procmail. It's just a simple text file and normally isn't so big a hassle. I'll post back when I get a chance to try it. Thanks again rayners.

Ok, at this point I would settle for knowing if ANYONE is successfully using procmail on this hosting service. I've managed to get procmail to fire twice. I have had thousands of messages come in matching the exact same signitures (I checked the header files to be certain) and I've used this .procmailrc on 3 other sites before with no problems. What is making this so flakey? I have 2 log entries from procmail saying that it did handle 2 messages, but nothing before or after that went through procmail. Before you ask, yes I do have my .forward setup to run it, and I've tried it with and without exec (exim and some other things need that). Has anyone had any level of success with procmail here? Did you have to do anything special?

I have a .procmailrc file that has worked for me in the past so the rules should be good. I put it in the root of my home directory but nothing is even getting logged so I don't think procmail is even trying to run it. Is there a different location I need to put it? Thanks
