Hi there,
we are using procmail as local delivery agent and I want to play around with
several custom header flags, thats why I set up an procmailrc which looks
like this:
COMSAT=off
VERBOSE=on
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log
CONFIRMDELIVERY=`formail -x"return-receipt-to"`
CONFIRMREADING=`formail -x"x-confirm-reading-to"`
MAILDIR=$1
LASTFOLDER=$MAILDIR
:0
*
$MAILDIR
But the procmail.log file records an error saying:
procmail: [6608] Mon Feb 23 10:04:10 1998
procmail: Failed forking "formail"
procmail: Assigning "CONFIRMDELIVERY="
procmail: [6608] Mon Feb 23 10:05:14 1998

procmail: Assigning "MAILDIR=/home/termftp/aus/ypg/a00106/KAA06606.cnm"

YES!! YES!! YES!! At last someone has the same problem as I do! well
Almost... (btw not cheering on your problem!)
My problem is this
procmail: Assigning "MAILDIR=/home/dionysus/.procmail"
procmail: Couldn't chdir to "/home/dionysus/.procmail"
Buddie, good luck I have been around the world with this one!
Everyone says: "well... it should work then"
NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I had a hotdog for everyone I saw say that, I'd be the fatman of the
circus! From here you will get "Read the MAN pages" , "Check your permissions",
and again "well it should work then!"
If you get help on this, please let me know!!
All I'm interisted in is sorting mail! and proc can't even get into that
dir!!
