Subject: questions abt procmail
Hi ,
I am trying to write a procmail that performs a autoresponding.
This procmail will receive the mail and will also instantaneously returns
a mail to the sender.
The undermentioned are the excerpts of the procmail I have written.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#procmail for Ivan
SENDMAIL=/usr/lib/sendmail
HOME=/home/ivan
PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/ucb:/bin:/usr/local/bin:.
MAILDIR=/usr/var/spool/mail
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/ivan
:O
{
:O c
* ^From: .*
|(formail -brt ; \
echo "Returning your mail " ;\
) | $SENDMAIL -t
:O
/home/ivan/mail/in-box
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
What could not work ?
I could return the mail but not able to saved the mail in
my mail box. How do I work around.
This is the way I set up a simular task.
:0
* ^From:.*
{
:0c
|gzip -f
:0
$LIST
}
So far this seems to work quit well.
