Is there a way of making procmail run a script , whenever I begin
composing an email ? I mean it can be passive and pipe to a script when
certain mail comes in. But is there a unix mail program that will execute
a script when ever I get ready to compose.
This is exactly what i had in mind :
I wrote an auto signature generator that randomly selects quotes/
taglines from a DB, whatever, and appends to the .signature file. Now in
pine ( as confessed earlier ) I can see the .signature file appended to
the end of my message, which I can modify or change as I will upon
completion of composition ( the idea is to get random tasteful quotes but
still have the ability of knowing and if desired changing the .signature )
Can I get that script running everytime I compose a letter,so that I get
different quotes everytime, I compose a letter ( instead of my present
one execution per session ).
Can procmail do this ( I know I might be making an OS out of this nice
program ) but such expectation is merely the result of my admiration for it.
