Q: Recipe problem

1995-12-21 21:23:29
Hi all,

I'm having a problem with procmail recipe.

For some reason my filter is not executed properly. The space char in the 
command line gets changed to a comma.
Commands such as 'cat' works as a filter, but mine gets munged.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.
Anto.
