Hi all,
I'm seeing a random issue with my procmail filters (only on email from this list) where once every so often, it will fail to filter a message. I am sorting by the to/cc email address, and this rule works on 99.9% of posts, however every now and again, I see something like this happen:
From centos-bounces@centos.org Sat Jan 5 01:57:28 2008 Subject: Re: [CentOS] What's up with the mailing list spam? Folder: /home/netwiz/Maildir/.CentOS-Discussion/new/ msg.br32 4852 procmail: Match on "(To|Cc).*centos@centos.org*" procmail: Couldn't create or rename temp file "/home/netwiz/ Maildir/.CentOS-Discussion/new/msg.A" procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/home/netwiz/Maildir/new/ 1199459595.7065_1.zeus.crc.id.au" procmail: Notified comsat: "netwiz@0:/home/netwiz/Maildir/new/ 1199459595.7065_1.zeus.crc.id.au"
Most posts work perfectly, and show up as such:

File and directory permissions on my Maildir directory etc are fine, and I'm at a loss to explain this. I've run fsck over the disk with no sign of errors.
Has anyone stumbled upon this before?

Hi All (again).
I am still at a loss on this one. Does anyone have any pointers for me?

procmail@lists.rwth-aachen.de
perhaps?
procmail: Couldn't create or rename temp file "/home/netwiz/ Maildir/.CentOS-Discussion/new/msg.A"
That ("msg.A") doesn't look like a file name that procmail would assign to a message in a maildir. What is your actual procmail recipe?
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/home/netwiz/Maildir/new/ 1199459595.7065_1.zeus.crc.id.au"
That, on the other hand, DOES look like a procmail file name.
I suspect pilot error.

Hmm - thanks - that might be my next resort if I don't notice any improvements.

That's what I thought, however, upon looking at the files in certain maildir folders, there seems to be a lot along this line... ie: msg.ZZ22:2,Sa msg.6G42:2,S msg.6GygB:2,Sa msg.BN32:2,S etc etc etc.
Some are also formatted like the one below.

I suspect pilot error.
That I'm not too sure about. It's pretty basic setup:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/ LOGFILE=$HOME/pm.log VERBOSE=on
## CentOS Disussion List :0 * (To|Cc).*centos@centos.org* { :0 .CentOS-Discussion/ }
All the other rules are variations on the above (usually just changing the email address and the destination folder.
