Hi all,
after poring over newsgroup postings and web pages, I'm still mystified. From
what I understand, the following script *should* do virtually nothing:
# start of script
VERBOSE=yes
EXITCODE=77
HOST
# end of script
Instead, running procmail 3.21 on a NetBSD box, I see an unexpected result when
I run "procmail procmailrc < test_message" where test_message is
From: ericding(_at_)localhost(_dot_)localdomain
To: ericding(_at_)localhost(_dot_)localdomain
Subject: testing exitcode/host
hello world
Instead of doing nothing, I see the following in the stdout logging:
myhost:~ [129] procmail procmailrc < testmsg
procmail: [13261] Fri Sep 14 17:30:00 2001
procmail: Assigning "EXITCODE=77"
procmail: Assigning "HOST"
procmail: HOST mismatched "myhost.localdomain"
procmail: Locking "/var/mail/ericding.lock"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/var/mail/ericding"
procmail: Opening "/var/mail/ericding"
procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock
procmail: Unlocking "/var/mail/ericding.lock"
procmail: Notified comsat: "ericding(_at_)3399:/var/mail/ericding"
Subject: testing exitcode/host
Folder: /var/mail/ericding 117
I'm confused; I thought HOST made procmail exit immediately. Why is procmail
still insisting on delivering the mail to my default mailbox?
Thanks,
Eric
