Currently we have quota's turned off, but we plan on turning them back on
soon. What is the expected behavior when procmail can't update a person's
mail file because he/she is over quota. Does it die with a hard error and
bounce back to sender?
<checks the source>
It treats it like any other write error and considers the write as
failing. If the -t flag was given then it'll exit with EX_TEMPFAIL and
sendmail will requeue it, otherwise it'll exit with EX_CANTCREAT and
sendmail will bounce it. It *will* spew a little note to stderr
("Quota exceeded while writing") which sendmail should nicely include
in the bounce message.
As just a user, can I specify -t flag in my .forward file?
It is currently:
"|IFS=' '&&exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #brozen"
Would I just make it?
"|IFS=' '&&exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -t -f- || exit 75 #brozen"
Thanks,
