Hello,

I have run into a weird situation and I am hoping someone out there can
help.  I am running the following .procmailrc in a users home directory:

(Vacation procmailrc 1.8 2000-04-23 Bennett Todd <bet(_at_)rahul(_dot_)net>)
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail-log
VERBOSE=on

  ) | $SENDMAIL $SENDMAILFLAGS -t

Found in the procmailrc(5) :

       e    This  recipe only executes if the immediately preced
            ing  recipe  failed  (i.e.  the   action   line   was
            attempted, but resulted in an error).

It looks like your reply would only work if the matching in the previous rule
(:0 Whc: vacation$LOCKEXT) fails .. thats why it normally delivers ;)

Grtz,

Nils.
