Thks a lot, your help was very usefull. But I have a problem now.
I did this file
:0cB:
* sex
/var/mail/badmail

So, after this my account badmail is locked! My /usr/bin/procmail is in root
group.
What else could be?

Thks a lot again!

Fernando.

What you could also do is
:0c
*^Subject: *.(sex|tax|whatever)
/var/mail/badmail

The:0c means to send a copy to the following rule (*^Subject.....) and keep
filtering the original through procmail.

I use this to page myself when my wife sends me an email

:0c
*^From: .*wife at somewhere.com
*^TO.*ktledford at mindspring.com
! 7703352390 at mobile.att.net
(I also add the *^TO rule in case she sends this to a mailing list we are
both on. I want to make sure I am only page when she sends me personal
mail.)

Hope this helps....
