Unrecgonized options: "Y"

1997-10-16 17:19:33


I installed procmail and sendmail 8.8.7 and used 
feature procmail as local mailer

I got an entry in Mlocal:

Mlocal,         P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qSPfhn9, S=10/30,
R=20/40,
                T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
                A=procmail -Y -a $h -d $u

Now when mail bounces the postmaster gets the error:

RCPT To:<bear(_at_)caroll(_dot_)com>
<<< 553 <bear(_at_)caroll(_dot_)com>... User unknown
550 bear(_at_)caroll(_dot_)com(_dot_)(_dot_)(_dot_) User unknown
procmail: Unrecognised options: "Y"
Usage: procmail [-vpto] [-f fromwhom] [parameter=value | rcfile] ...
   Or: procmail [-to] [-f fromwhom] [-a argument] -d recipient ...
   Or: procmail [-pt] -m [parameter=value] ... rcfile mail_from rcpt_to ...
Processing continued


Obviously the sendmail  8.8.7 configuration files assume
that procmail as a local delivery agent accepts the
"-Y" flag (else why is it under A=procmail -Y -A $h -d $u ???)

But why does procmail reject option "Y"?
