Hi,
I use fetchmail with postfix & procmail to retrieve my email from mail
servers and procmail to my Ubuntu 9.04 Linux box. The problem that I
encounter is that when cron runs it generates and sends a email to the
local user account. When this email is sent it is not filtered with
procmail and stays in my INBOX /var/mail/USERNAME . Is there a way
to call procmail from postfix to filter messages? In fetchmail I use
wants mda /usr/bin/procmail to call procmail to filter email messages.

user 'USERNAMETHERE' there with password 'secret' is 'USER' here
options keep ssl
mda '/usr/bin/procmail -d %T'
