That should be "MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail" without a "$" at the beginning. You use
the dollar sign to interpolate the value of a variable (as with "$HOME"), not
to define one.
OK, so I have a question. I want to attempt to match a from with a
variable and a subject:
# Found attachment submited by $Person1
* ^From.*$Person1
* ^Subject.*submiting.attachment
{
# do something in here
}
where would I define these variables if I want them always available to
me in the shell (I use csh) so I can, for instance:
mail $Person1 < person1.attachment
and I would REALLY like to have it stored in one place, not two or more, so
I can easily change the definition of $Person1. This is more of a shell
question but I guess I am asking if putting this info in my .cshrc will
carry into procmail processing or not or if there is some other way to
achieve this.
