I'm getting an error about a "suspicious ~/.procmailrc" file. I'm guessing this is a permissions problem. If that's the case, could someone let me know what the correct permissions should be? For the moment, using a '/etc/procmailrc' seems to be the only thing that works. 2. Procmail seems to be rather slow. I don't know whether this is normal, but I've timed one mailbox download and it's taking on average 10 minutes to process 317 messages (2MB total). Also, is procmail supposed to be called for each individual message? My rudimentary config files below.
