Hello,

My problem may seem simple but I ask it anyway.

User A wants to send an email to the list B but isn't allowed to use
attachments mailing to lists.
So I want to create a "proxyuser" C that he sends to instead.

C runs procmail and filter out the attachments and put them on a webplace.
C then sends the basemail (without the attachments) plus the URLs to B.

If one have procmail in sendmail you can use the '+' like in C+B:
Then you get that when A sends an email to 'C(_at_)host' he may get back the
email with the URLs and without the attachments.

If A sends to 'C+B(_at_)host' or maybe 'C+B,D,E(_at_)host' (some seperator,
suggestions welcome): B(_at_)host (or maybe B(_at_)secondhost) get the email as 
if A
had sent it directly to B (except the Recieved-lines). (And likewise for
D and E if that was specified).

I think procmail (with assistant of some mime-tool) is perfect for this,
but I don't know how to do it.
