I think I should simplify my question. I confused myself
reading it, so it must be awful.
I have this:
Mprocmail, P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, F=DFMShu, S=11/31, R=21/31,
T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=procmail -m $h $f $u
Which sends $f and $u as arguments $1 and $2,
and everything is happy. However,
if I set this up to use a .procmailrc that is in
ETCRCS, the recipe runs and those arguments do not arrive.
The only difference is in the fact that the .rc file
is in /etc/procmailrcs/. (Thus procmail attempts to
set uid to the owner of the file).
The man page says that "Variable Substitution" is a problem,
but does not indicate this behaviour.
I admit that my setup is confusing and tricky, but I hope
that I have narrowed down my problem enough to reasonably
ask you for help.
Thanks,
James

In a five year period we can get one superb programming language. Only
we can't control when the five year period will begin.
