Hi all of you procmail's gurus ;-)),
I have recently installed procmail and everything is working fine
except a little point:
I can't launch any program with the '|' action.
It just simply doesn't work: Instead of launching the action
(whatever it is: awk script, cat, lpr), I reveive a copy
of the mail, although I didn't use the 'c' flag.
Any help would be great...
Thanxx.
Here is my .procmailrc
# .procmailrc
#
# First part: Assignments
PATH=$PATH
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
DEFAULT=/usr/spool/mail/bredel
SHELL=/bin/tcsh
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
First of all, you should use a BOURNE shell unless you a really good
reason. Do you really need the advanced command-line editing/completion,
etc. of a TCSH?
# Second part: Recipes
# This one works perfectly:
# Test recipe: Catenate all files with subject : inscrip
# to the file $HOME/Mail/cine
:0 hbW:
* ^(Subject).*!(Inscrip|inscrip)
| cat >> cine
Second, I would suggest you give the FULL path for the file you are
CATing to (i.e., "$HOME/Mail/cine").
Lastly, set the LOG file to maximum verbosity and give us the output to
examine. Perhaps even the complete "~/.procmailrc" file would even be
appropriate to send here if it isn't TOO long. :^)
Lates!
