Bill McClatchie asked,

|
| | formail -I "X-score: $="
By "hasn't worked" do you mean that no X-Score: header was added, that the
wrong value was substituted for $=, or that $= was left as static text?
Been a while, but I was getting $= as the static text.

| the headers:
|
| VAL=$=
|
| :0 fhw
| | formail -I "X-score: $VAL"
There are two reasons that wouldn't work:
1. The score is zero or negative, so the action line doesn't get run.
One would think that. :-) But I only add the line when I get a low to
midrange positive.
[..]
Which was the problem in Bill's past experiences depends on what exactly
happened instead of getting the header added.
For reference, I have always used sh for procmail, and the only times I
got the error described (as well as the others I know) was on Netcom. I
knever tried something else on other accounts since I already had a
solution I knew worked.
Maybe it was Netcom, and timidity kept me from discovering it. :-D
