How can I force procmail to deliver to the /tmp directory of the shell
machine?
I have seen this question on here more than once. I have a suggestion on
how to possibly make it work.
Do a pwd and see what the path is to your home directory.
eg. /home/users/g-m/myhome
Then in your procmailrc declare the name of your write-to directory to be:
MYWRITE="/home/users/g-m/myhome/../../../../tmp"
This gives you an indirect path from your directory to the /tmp drive
hopefully on your machine.
Maybe?
Probably not. In most cases the shell machine's /tmp wouldn't even be
mounted on the mail server, so there's no way for procmail to write to
it directly.
