Configuring procmail/mutt

Marco` · 2006-04-12 16:12:40

I want to have a simple configuration for mutt, mail to my Gmail account should go into gmail/, mail to my Linux-Box account should go into linux-box/
My procmail rc

MAILDIR=$HOME/.mail
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/log

:0
* ^TOaccount@linux-box.nl
linux-box/
:0
* ^TOaccount@gmail.com
gmail/
:0:
inbox/

the last line is for mail from forums.

muttrc

set realname='Marco Louter'

set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp"
set use_from=yes
set from=account@linux-box.nl
set envelope_from=yes
set edit_headers=yes
set folder=~/.mail
set mbox=+mbox
set spoolfile=+inbox.spool
set record=+sent
set postponed=+drafts
set mbox_type=Maildir

mailboxes +inbox +linux-box +gmail

1) Is this a good config?
2) Is a spoolfile needed for anything? Cause with my procmail config now no mail ends up there anyway.

No replies, so I guess my config is good?

"good" is subjective. I'm not sure how you expect us to really answer. I use mutt alot, so my config is maybe 20X the size of yours. (my procmailrc is also much more complex). It works for me.

If what you are using works for you, that's great.
