Not sure exactly what behavior you want, but the following may do
the trick. I've added the `a' flag to the second recipe. Also,
note the `:' at the end of the first recipe to force procmail to use
a lockfile -- usually a good idea when saving to a file.
* ^From.*peter.*
{
:0c :
peter
:0 ha
auto reply scripts.
}
Three small additions
- In the first place, add an extra line before the entire recipe with
":0" on it. Otherwise procmail won't see this as a recipe.
- Remove the last ".*" from the first regexp. It's not needed here and
it'll only slow down procmail.
- And last but not least, i expect the one who asked the question he
wanted to filter on the contents of the From: field, not the From_
field. Therefor, tighten the regexp a bit.
So, you'll end up with a thing like:
:0
* ^From: .*peter
{
:0c :
peter
:0 ha
[auto reply scripts]
}
And yes, one could even tighten that first regexp even more.
HTH, -R.
