I can type lynx -dump http://www.ourdomain.com/blah/blah/ at the command
prompt and get the result I want.
But are you logged into the mail server at the time?
Do you have
TERM=vt100
somewhere in your .procmailrc? (Lynx needs that in my experience)
Is it possible procmail only has a limited number of shell programs to
operate with?
yes that is possible but not likely the problem in this case
The logfile for the above recipe throws an error - I tried the full path of
lynx, I tried making a variable with $LYNX and its full path but always:
Total Number Folder
----- ------ ------
0 2 ## ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t"
0 2 ## -A"X-Loop: auto1(_at_)ourdomain(_dot_)com"; \
0 2 ## -I"From: Us <auto1(_at_)ourdomain(_dot_)com>" \
0 2 ## -I"Subject: Info you requested" \
0 2 ## /usr/local/bin/lynx -dump
http://www.ourdomain.com/blah/blah/ \
0 1 ## /usr/local/bin/lynx: not found
It sounds like the mail server does not have lynx on it, or at least not at
/usr/local/bin/
This can very often be caused by your shell account being on one machine, and
the mail server being a different machine. If that's not the case, then check
your $PATH statement in .procmail
