Hello,
 Thinking of using 'procmail' as my mail filter with Pine 3.95 as the mail
client.

If anyone out there has any experience with this combination, I would
appreciate it if you could share your experiences/any special 'gotchas', etc?
How would you recommend I start off?

Thanks a lot,
--Vikas

Procmail is quite a monster, but once tamed will give a plethora of
wonderful toys. Read the man pages (procmail and procmailrc) -- if you're
any good at programming those will be all you need for now. If you want more
than "basic" stuff, be sure to join the mailing list (which is really,
really good) and read some of the many faqs that are available on the net.
Start with Nancy McGoughs Filtering-FAQ.

Cheers,
Robin

       On the package it said: "Requires MS Windows 3.11 or better"
