Hi--
Right now I'm trying to clean up messages going to my pager. My users are
really only familiar with groupwise, so I'm forwarding their gwise messages to
a pine account, where I am trying to use procmail to strip out unnecessary
header stuff so that I can get the message within the 200 character limit of my
pager. Judging from the archives this is a recurring problem. Below is the
recipe I'm using to try and shorten the headers:
:0 fhW
| formail -k -X From: -X Subject
:0 c
*^From:(_dot_)*mygroupwise(_at_)gwise(_dot_)louisville(_dot_)edu
! 12345678(_at_)epage(_dot_)arch(_dot_)com
I know I'm doing something fundamentally wrong in the above script, because
it's not forwarding stuff that's been formail-ed, but I'll figure it out. The
bigger problem, however, is that the messages forwarded from Groupwise keep the
original as attachments, so I'm trying to figure out how to scrub the forwarded
message so that only the From:, Subject: and body go to my pager.
Here's what a forwarded groupwise message looks like when saved from pine.
Thanks for any help you might render, and my preemptive apologies if this
question is too simple:
