procmail autoreply with dialup connection and free e-mail address

1998-05-20 09:53:38
Hello world, I'm a Linux user from Italy and I need to generate
autoreplies for e-mail messages ...
That's my /etc/hosts

localhost       localhost.localdomain   127.0.0.1
avalon          avalon.underworld       0.0.0.1

My domain is : unige.it
My free e-mail addresses are : fsimon(_at_)nettaxi(_dot_)com, 
fsimonetti(_at_)usa(_dot_)net
My e-mail "From:" is set to fsimon(_at_)nettaxi(_dot_)com

I use fetchmail for mail retrieving from POP servers listed, so I can
handle incoming messages and distribute them on multiple folders.
I duplicate an auto-reply recipe that I've found by "man procmailex",
adapting it to my own setup, but it doesn't work !!! 
If I delete the last two lines * !X-Loop:, and I try to send a message
to myself, it works perfectly, but that doesn't happens when I receive
message from the outside world ...

My .fetchmailrc is:

poll pop1.nettaxi.com protocol pop3
user fsimon, with password *****, is ferdi here
poll pop.netaddress.com protocol pop3
user fsimonetti, with password *****, is ferdi here

My sendmail starts with : /usr/sbin/sendmail -bd -q1h

My mail-retrieving-and-sending script (that I run when I go on-line) is:

fetchmail -a -F -v -t 30
/usr/sbin/sendmail -q

My .procmailrc (finally !!!) is attached at this mail message ...

Please excuse me for bad use of English ... and many thanks in advance
for help !!!
I joined just now to procmail mailing-list, so I prefer answers mailed
directly to my own mail address ... however, thank a lot !!!
