procmail: No match on "^$trash_header"
Can anyone tell me why there is no match on $trash_header? I suspect I am
being stupid, but cannot see the problem.
Two things:
1. What is trash_header set to? Nowhere in your post do you indicate as
much, and given this is the one line you're having a problem with, that
seems to be a major omission. To expect people to head off onto the web to
research the spam filter you're using in order to determine this basic
aspect of your problem is a bit much (seeing as the URL in question isn't
even the text of the script).
Sorry...I realized I had forgotten the "minor detail" right after I hit
"Send".
2. ^$ is a sweet regexp - empty line. perhaps you forgot to include the $
flag which would ensure that it is evaluated via sh substitution before
being parsed as a regexp:
* $ ^$trash_header
That was it. I misunderstood that part of the man page.
