I'll spare you all the entire digest (this time) ;-)).
Most of them are handled by my system correctly, but about once
a week I find the entire digest in my inbox.
Here is what my .procmailrc looks like:
:0 w: procmail.lock
* ^TO(_dot_)*procmail-d(_at_)Informatik(_dot_)RWTH-Aachen(_dot_)DE(_dot_)*
| formail +1 -eds /usr/lib/mh/rcvstore +procmail
Whazz happenin'?

So my question is, is there anything special I need to do in the
procmail recipe to properly pipe mail to this (or any) perl script?
Thank you,

Thanks to those that helped with the "Reply-To:" delemia I had. It
appeared as though my problem was not using ":0 fh" but using just ":0".
Now onto something fun. Below is the header from one of my small list
subscribers. Look closly and you'll see after Content Type and before
hopfen(_at_)malz(_dot_)com there is a blank line. This blank line seperates the
To:
and Subject: info. As a result Procmail will not see the To: or Subject
and will not forward it. It believes that the blank line is now going
to start the mail.
My question, is there any way around it on my end? I know I could use
the From: and be able to forward this guys stuff, but if he gets on a
couple of my lists, this won't work correctly.....

That error message is coming from /bin/sh, not perl. For some reason sh
is interpreting your perl script instead of perl. Is bash not the shell
you have listed in the password file, or do you have a SHELL assignment
in your procmailrc? What happens when you run "sh -c mymail < test-message"?
As a workaround you could change the invocation in the recipe to
| perl /path/to/mymail
but of course that's nasty.
