I try to pipe my message: (mess.txt) into this file:
THISFILE < MESS.TXT
[snip]
#------THISFILE
| (formail -r -I "Subject: SESAME: destination(_at_)yahoo(_dot_)com
014481" \
-i "Received:" \
Uh, is THISFILE supposed to be an executable script? If so, where is the
shell being specified (#!/bin/sh for example), neverminding the way piping
is being performed on the formail line?
If THISFILE is supposed to be a procmail recipe (which it sort of looks
like it is supposed to be), then you're omitting a bunch of stuff that
should be occuring BEFORE this recipe (such as the conditions for
matching), AND you're not calling it properly on the commandline - procmail
scripts are NOT treated like shell scripts.
