First of all, while maildrop is easier than procmail, I suspect it's only to lull you into a false sense of security. This is the kind of software that makes me think programmers hate people, me specifically. This is idiotic. The documentation only loosely relates to the program, and in places where it's not flat out wrong, the software refuses to do what you tell it to. The only saving grace is it does the same thing consistently. As in, it will do the same thing twice in a row if you leave the .mailfilter file alone.
Procmail had this fatal flaw where if you were stupid enough NOT to touch the recipe file, it would do different things depending on....god alone knows what, and I suspect it's a mystery to her too.

Anyway. Does anybody have a good tutorial for maildrop? I am trying to script a vacation ./mailfilter file.
Any help is greatly apprecaited.
