Thanks for ur quick reply and help..
but as u said do i need to create these . forward n .procmailrc files for each
user.
if so then ??
how abt a global file
as far as spam is concerned i will be using Spamassassin with mailscanner .
how do i let sendmail know to use procmail as my LDA
i will be using dovecot as my Imap server
how will be the mail users created .. r they created as normal unix users which
i have done for my earlier mail server
btw i already have mailserver for my old existing domain...
which runs sendmail + dovecot + Spamassissan + mailscanner with normal mbox
format and is working perfectly OK .
but i jus want my new mailserver have mails with maildir format as i am
expecting the mails for this domain users to be huge.
Thnak and appreciate
Regards
simon

file with something like:
"| /usr/bin/procmail"
You also need a .procmailrc with your procmail rules:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME
LOGFILE=$HOME/tmp/procmail.log
LOGABSTRACT=yes
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
MyMail/SPAM
You can find other procmail filters with google.
Now if you're using Cyrus IMAP, you need to use sieve to filter your
incoming mail.
