helo mike,
i probably go the long way... but... hope this brings you closer to your
destination:
i set FROM to:
FROM=`formail -X From:`
and then user the variable $FROM on the command line eg:
|/somewhere/userful/progie -ARGS $FROM soandso page message.
hope this kinda helps ya... in using Hylafax.

I've been trying something out lately: forwarding short emails that are

working for the most part, except for one slight problem. All the mail

be a way to retain the original sender's name?
Here is the section of my .procmailrc that is pertinent (this is the last
recipe in the file):

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
