Greetings...
I have procmail 3.10 running on an Alpha running Digital Unix 3.2. I
have configured my sendmail 8.8.5 to use procmail as its local delivery
agent. The problem I am seeing is when I use procmail to send mail
(called as mail) it cannot understand NIS aliases, or local aliases for
that matter. I have looked through all the docs I could find, but saw
no hints for this behavior. Is this a know limitation?
The work around I used was to defined /bin/procmail as the deliver agent
instead of /bin/mail where /bin/mail was procmail renamed. This made it
possible for programs which called /bin/mail (now the real one) to send
a message to an alias. But I still would like to find out why procmail did
not check my aliases file.
thanks...
