Re: spam being sent through list-digest-outgoing

I am assuming I should make this entry in my .procmailrc? And where should 
I put the .procmailrc entry? In my root dir? or my majordomo dir? I hate 
to sound stupid but I have never had this problem before. Could I ask what 
your procmail entry looked like? I really appreciate this and your help. I 
am also gonna print out 3.6 of the faq. Thanks again
