Procmail with sendmail and cyrus

2000-12-03 21:51:33
I have RedHat Linux 6.2 system running sendmail, procmail, and cyrus IMAPD
1.6.X without a problem.

The mail flow is as follows:
sendmail->procmail->cyrus IMAPD's deliver.

Everything works fine on this system.

I have setup a test RedHat 7.0 Linux system running Cyrus IMAPD 2.0.7-3.
This system works fine if I take procmail out of the picture.  In other
words, having sendmail send mail directly (well, via lmtp) using  the sample
.mc file from Cyrus works without a problem.

The issue arises when I bring procmail into the picture.  Using a setup
similar to what is working with the 1.6.X system, mail is never delivered.
I turned on as many debugging features as I could find and I can confirm
that procmail does end up firing up deliver.  I have tried having procmail
fire up deliver with the following different command lines.

deliver -a <username> -m <mailboxname>
deliver -e -a <username> -m <mailboxname>
deliver -e -a <username> -m <mailboxname> -l

In call cases, the mail does not get delivered.  However, deliver runs
successfully without reporting any errors.  I also tried deliver-wrapper
with no luck.

Am I missing something or is deliver (and/or deliver-wrapper) broken in the
2.X release?  Are there any debugging switches for deliver or
deliver-wrapper that I can turn on to see what is going on?

Now, when procmail is taken out of the picture, and I use sendmail alone,
mail is delivered fine.  However, in that instance, sendmail is using lmtp
to deliver the mail to the Cyrus lmtp daemon.  Can procmail deliver via
lmtp?

Thanks in advance for any help,
--Moby
