Still not Looping and SHIFTing

1996-04-30 15:41:17

 I am using procmail v3.11pre4 1995/10/29 so I guess thats not the
 problem. This is what I have been using to test it:

   DUDE="$2"

   :0
   | echo $DUDE > /tmp/result

 I then call procmail with
  cat /usr/mail/root | /usr/local/bin/procmail -m /tmp/script a1 a2 a3 a4

 and I get "a2" in result which is correct.

 If I use this script:

   DUDE="$@"

   :0
   | echo $DUDE > /tmp/result

 I get nothing in the file. Very Strange! So I run it with verbose logging
 on and I get:

  procmail: [25069] Wed May  1 08:38:22 1996
  procmail: Assigning "DUDE="
  procmail: Executing " echo $DUDE > /tmp/result"
  procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER= echo $DUDE > /tmp/result"
    Folder:  echo $DUDE > /tmp/result

 Ahhhhhh!!!!!!

  Thanks for your help so far.
