Well, actually, what I meant by garbage (and I was wrong in using this term
in this way) is that when the angle-bracked/parenthesized name is missing,
mailx defaults to using the "^From " address which in many cases is
nearly garbarge.
Here's one from a list I'm on:
From
sentto-1111929-3232-978899240-dave=geol(_dot_)ucsb(_dot_)edu(_at_)returns(_dot_)onelist(_dot_)com
Ah, a qmail VERP address.
Hmm, is the mailx "from" option set or cleared? What happens if you
put it the other way?
I thought I was fairly advanced in regexp's until I joined this list
and so far it hasn't all rubbed off on me.
Anyway, may I ask, with David Tamkin's suggestion, should I now just
add a left paren like this? |
v
:0 fhw
* ^From:[ ]*\/[^ <(,]+[ ]*$
* MATCH ?? ^^\/[^ ]+
| formail -i"From: $MATCH <$MATCH>"
Yes.
Just curious but why does procmail's -v option go to stderr?
Because it did when it was first added (it uses the internal logging
functions) and no one has felt strongly enough about it to submit a
patch or try to convince everyone else that it should be changed.
