Hi People,

        I've only just started playing around with formail and procmail 
combined 
and have this small problem.. Check it out:

For some reason procmail is sending mail to 
tremors(_at_)newjackswinf(_dot_)dyn(_dot_)ml(_dot_)org 
and the users name which is 
george(_at_)newjackswing(_dot_)dyn(_dot_)ml(_dot_)org and 
vieira(_at_)newjackswing(_dot_)dyn(_dot_)ml(_dot_)org(_dot_)(_dot_) But I just 
wanted the actual email address 
not the users name.. this is causing alot of undeliverable mail BUT still 
works because tremors##.##.## is correct too..

Any ideas?? Thanks

This is my recipe:

FROM=`formail -xFrom: `

:0:
* ^Subject:.*test
| mail -s "NCI test ok" -c $FROM << $FROM

NOTE: the $FROM << $FROM is just so I could see what the variable had but 
didn't work

This is the logs:

procmail: Assigning "INCLUDERC=/home/nci/.procmail/rc.nci"
procmail: Executing "formail,-xFrom:"
