Procmail newbie question.
Replies to fdpx(_at_)cronos(_dot_)com until I straighten out the rest of the
mail system.....
I am trying to install a program to do the same as vacation.
Vacation versions looked naff, procmail looked more promising.
(And less overhead than using perl)
Using PTX 2.1.8 on a Sequent.
On building I get some 'Arguement incompatible with prototype'
as well as the normal loop warning, is this significant ?
Using the vacation example from the manual, with a little tweaking
to save time, I get an a vacation.cache with appropriate entries,
but no reply message.
I have tested out the command with the second rule, and that works okay.
Its as though the second rule is never run.
ptx uname stuff:
3.2.0 V2.1.8 i386
.forward contents
\temp1, "| /usr/lbin/procmail"
.procmailrc contents
SHELL=/bin/ksh
PATH=$PATH:/usr/lbin
:O Whc: vacation.lock
* !^FROM_DAEMON
* !^X-Loop: temp1(_at_)cronos(_dot_)com
| formail -rD 8192 vacation.cache
:O ehc
| (formail -rA"Precedence: junk" \
-A"X-Loop: temp1(_at_)cronos(_dot_)com" ;\
echo "I received your mail " ; \
echo "but won't be able to read it " ;\
echo " Till I sort the mail out" ; \
echo "--- " ; cat $HOME/.signature \
) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t
