At 22:16 2002-01-24 -0500, Kenneth Blackwell did say:
| formail -rf -I "X-Mailer: Bob's Spam Canceller" -I "From: \
Kenneth Blackwell" -i "Subject: Your message has been deleted" \
| cat - $HOME/.procmail/spam-msg \
| /usr/lib/sendmail -t
I believe this (slightly different) syntax is how most people here perform
this sort of task:
| ( formail -rf -I "X-Mailer: Bob's Spam Canceller" -I "From: \
Kenneth Blackwell" -i "Subject: Your message has been deleted" ; \
cat $HOME/.procmail/spam-msg ) \
| /usr/lib/sendmail -t
Note that you could have echos or other cats in there, to "build" a
message, without need to grab stdin and echo it back out to stdout before
doing so.
I doubt it is any more efficient (dunno if it really involves an extra
shell, though it might), but it can be more versatile.
