MIME attachment killer won't work

2000-01-10 18:26:43
Hello, everyone.

I'm sorry if this question has been asked a million times, but I'm new to this 
list and really need an answer. Like I'm sure many other Unix mail users, I'm 
constantly getting these WINMAIL.DAT email attachment from Microsoft Mail 
users. I'm trying to get procmail to simply cut them out. According to Jari 
Aalto's website, it's possible with his recipes--especially pm-jamime-kill.rc. 
I'm just trying to get it to work. I've set up a proctest environment and am 
running an email through a proctest.rc to get the syntax correct. Nothing 
works; the attachment stays and I'm getting more and more frustrated. Here's 
the recipe I'm using.

PMSRC = /usr/local/src/pm-code  #This is where I unzipped the pm-code.zip file.

# General MIME attachment killer
INCLUDERC = $PMSRC/pm-jamime-kill.rc

Could someone please set me straight?
