Autoreply works and does not work??

1997-07-11 11:30:00
Hello,

I have got Auto Replys working using the following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

* ^X-ApparentlyTo: ian
*!^FROM_DAEMON
*!^X-Loop:ian(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com
{
        :0c:
        /var/spool/mail/ianmail

        :0a
        |(formail -r -a "Precedence: junk"\
        -I"From: Auto Reply from Ian Chilton 
<ian(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com> " \
        -I"Subject: Delivery Successful" \
        -A "X-Loop: ian(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com";\
        cat /root/.procmail/reply.txt ) |$SENDMAIL -t
}

:0:
* ^X-ApparentlyTo: dennis
/var/spool/mail/denmail

:0:
* ^X-ApparentlyTo: dcit
/var/spool/mail/denmail

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This seems to work sometimes and not others.
I sent a test message from one of my accounts 
(mailinglist(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com) to 
ian(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com and it sent the auto reply to 
chiltons(_at_)u-net(_dot_)net(_dot_) This is then not filtered properly by 
procmail and goes into my miscmail file. I tried it from 
dennis(_at_)chiltons(_dot_)u-net(_dot_)com and the same happened. I then tried 
sending on from a totally different account on a differenct ISP. The autoreplys 
got stuck in my mqueue and after about 5 times  of 'sendmail -q' they were 
still in the mqueue.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in Advance

Ian
