Andy and others:
I retreived a copy of your procmail library to learn how to send
autoreply files. My attempt isn't working perfectly, so I'd appreciate
some help from more experienced users. It is suppose to send a file back
as a reply if it receives a message with "send coupon" as the subject.
Currently, it executes, but it is winding up in dead.letter about 30 tries.
I have attached a copy of the command file and a copy of the log file:
Your help is greatly appreciated,
Patty Buchanan
