RE: Aliases and Procmail

*Update*

I have tested a .forward file that contained only an e-mail address rather
than piping it through procmail.  All alias are forwarded appropriately.  So
it would seem there is something wrong with my syntax in my .forward file,
here are the current contents:

"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #ds"

Does anyone see a problem with this?


DS

I am new to procmail.  I have nearly successfully installed 
and configured
procmail.  I have a snag that I cannot fix and need some 
help, described
below:

My aliases work fine when my .forward is not active.  When I invoke my
.forward to pipe through procmail, I only receive messages 
that were sent to
dan(_at_)domain(_dot_)net or ds(_at_)domain(_dot_)net(_dot_)  Any aliases 
with multiple addresses
associated with them are lost, they aren't even bounced.  The 
messages I do
receive (to dan or ds) when procmail is invoked, are filtered properly
according to my testing recipes.  I have included appropriate 
files below
for more information.  You might also note this is setup in a 
virtual server
environment.


Thanks in advance,
Dannie M Stanley
