Hi all. I am trying to install procmail on our systems here and I am having
problems with the .forward file. Located below is the bounce error message.
System info: Sparc 4 running sunos4.1.4 We are running a recient version
of the Berkeley Sendmail (I don't know the exact version number).
...
sh: cannot use & in command
This is the sign of smrsh (sendmail restricted shell). You'll need to
get smrsh to accept procmail as a valid command for .forward files.
This is generally done by putting a copy (or hardlink) of procmail in
smrsh directory
/usr/adm/sm.bin
After that, change your .forward file to just say:
procmail -f-
If you really want the retry on failure semantics of the "||exit 75"
part of the .forward you were using, try using
procmail -f- -t
instead.
