procmail not filtering as expected
 

Hello,

I have an issue with procmail. It's probably a minor thing, I just need a
second pair of eyes.

In .procmailrc I have:


:0:
* ^From:.*root
* backup2l
.log.backup/

:0:
* ^Subject: Cron
.log.cron/


The following mail ends up in .log.cron/, not in .log.backup/

Where is my mistake?

I'm not an expert, but don't you need to tell it to egrep the body? I.e.
something like

:0
* ^From:.*root
{
:0 B
* backup2l
.log.backup/
}

I'm even less of an expert. :)
I'll see tomorrow when cron runs the backup.
