I'm trying to figure out how to consolidate email to one account. I set up a .forward file in my $HOME to send mail (from my VPS and that I pull from another pop3 server) to my gmail account.

Now I'm trying a couple of utilities to pull mail from Hotmail and Yahoo. I have the option of passing that mail off to procmail instead of writing it to mbox.

So, from what I can figure, I need a recipe in ~/.procmailrc to forward *those* mails to my gmail as well. IOW, it seems that passing mail to procmail bypasses my ~/.forward file?

Thanks!
