How would you change this recipe so that in the redirected filename it
would have something like 'air.level271196'
I don't see why this wouldn't work. I suppose it doesn't matter than you
don't have a LOCKFILE as whatever the newest incoming mail is that
matches this recipe will just CLOBBER the old (if present) file. That's
the way you want in right?
DATE=`date +%d%m%y`
:HBc
* ^Subject:.*Air Quality Bulletin
| /home/dill/isps/src/air/do_level >\
/home/dill/isps/src/air/Output/air.level$DATE
Also, I know it is possible to nest commands on the '|' line so you can
execute more than one command in a recipe.
The ';' can do that. And you may need to stick some '('/')' in there
depending on what you want to do.
BTW where's the documentation for procmail?
In the MAN (manual) pages; it comes with the TARred source for PROCMAIL.
Lates!
