I'm setting up an OTRS installation from source on a minimal Debian; No mail server is installed and procmail and fetchmail packages are not installed too.
My OTRS is working perfectly right now with an SMTP relay to send emails. However, I noticed when running the SetPermissions.sh script that it exits with an error related to .procmailrc or .fetchmailrc not found. Thus, I'd like to know if I'll have any problem if I don't install procmail and fetchmail packages. And what would be their utility since my OTRS can send and receive emails without them?
You will not have any problems this way. Procmail and fetchmail is required per default to get emails easily into OTRS (out of the box if an emails gets delivered to otrs user). But if you know what you are doing you do not need to take care about procmail and fetchmail. -Martin
