Re: Problem mit Procmail

From: Wolf Christian Vogt <vogt(_at_)fgan(_dot_)de>

leider habe ich ein Problem mit meiner .procmailrc-Datei. Das erste
Rezept (also das simple Forwarding) funktioniert nicht. Das zweite
Rezept (mit mailto und den oben definierten Variablen) funktioniert
einwandfrei.

Christian: leider findet die Liste nur im Englischen statt.  (The list
takes place in English.)

He says he has a problem: the first recipe doesn't work.  The second
does, and accepts the variable definitions from up-top.

SUBJECT=`/usr/local/bin/formail -xSubject:`
FROM=`/usr/local/bin/formail -xFrom:`

! uzsvw7(_at_)ibm(_dot_)rhrz(_dot_)uni-bonn(_dot_)de

The reason this doesn't work is that you didn't include an action line.
You're saying "(a) clone the mail; (b) if it's not from uzsvw7 then do
something"; but you're not saying what to do.

Read "man procmailrc" for some grounding.  Also see the procmail list
for pointers to various FAQs.

Yes, I would expect that one to work.  You have a similar construct to
above but have said what it is you want the recipe to do (the part beginning
with the pipe).

|/usr/local/bin/procmail

Is that what you have in your .forward?  You probably want to look at
the notes on .forward in man procmail.
