Re: Problem: address not caught in To: header

Send us the recipes for this... its kind-of hard to know
whats going on without it. Meanwhile you could try using the
^TO_ pattern for matching, if you arn't already. Otherwise,
starting your pattern with ^to:.* will only match the To:
fields and nothing else.

Hi everyone,

  I'm currently using procmail to manage all of the email coming to my
(virtual) host, and had a problem today.  I received a message which was
sent out to a large committee which I am on, which contains around 100
people.  Now, my email address Matthew(_at_)Manuel(_dot_)ca is usually 
caught and
forwarded to my main mail acct.  For some reason, this message was not (it
"fell off the end" of my .procmailrc and ended up in my mail account on the
host).


I have a similar problem. The To: header does not seem to be the primary 
key for procmail when delivering the mail. In the below message, several 
instances of nilsson(_at_)seaside(_dot_)se appears, like 
X-MDaemon-Deliver-To: 
nilsson(_at_)seaside(_dot_)se(_dot_) Is procmail supposed to deliver based on 
anything else 
than the To: header?

The mail was sent to  To: <anders(_dot_)nilsson(_at_)seaside(_dot_)se> which 
maps to user 
sea0350b but it was delivered to user nilsson on my Linux system (Slackware 
7.1.0).
