I am running procmail version 3.11pre7 and sendmail 8.8.7. I'm using the
sendmail FEATURE(`local_procmail') to use procmail for my local delivery
agent. At the moment, users haven't been notified (yet) of procmail
availability, so that no-one has a ~/.procmailrc file.
The FEATURE macro generates the following mailer definition for procmail:
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
That all looks correct.
We are using sendmail masquerading here such that local mail from sendmail
has
a From line with fully-qualified usernames (ie. From
username(_at_)networkcs(_dot_)com).
The problem I'm seeing is that procmail is adding a ">From username" header
to
the mail thinking that the original From is a fake. Is there some special
sendmail mailer incantation for procmail that will allow procmail to realize
that username and username(_at_)networkcs(_dot_)com are really the same?
sendmail isn't adding the "From username(_at_)networkcs(_dot_)com". Sendmail
only
adds one if the mailer _doesn't_ have the 'n' flag, which the Mlocal
above does, so that's not it. Does your sendmail.cf set the
"SaveFromLine" option? If so, torch it.
All of our email here goes through a central mail gateway, which fully
qualifies/masquerades the envelope, and then is received at the final delivery
hub via an SMTP connection - thus the "From username(_at_)networkcs(_dot_)com".
The hub
recognizes itself (via the w class) as networkcs.com.
If all else fails, you could try adding "-o" to the procmail command line,
so that A= directive in the local mailer definition would read:
A=procmail -o -Y -a $h -d $u
but that's a kludge.
Yeah, plus I also get all these annoying syslog error-level messages:
procmail[21505]: Attempt to fake stamp by "mks"
