Hi
I'm using procmail to filter mail , lists.rc is the user list
* :0:
* * ^TO_user1(_at_)domain(_dot_)com
* /var/spool/mail/user1
Why the leading asterisks on each line? Please DO NOT "munge" recipes
in
this fashion - leading space (indentation) is okay, but if you insert
stuff
like this (and of all chars, the _asterisk_), it gives readers
(including
some other newbie who might read your post) the impression that you
might
believe that the extra asterisks are actually _part_ of a valid
recipe. They are not.
* :0:
* * ^TO_user2(_at_)domain(_dot_)com
* /var/spool/mail/user2
the problem is with mail for more the one user , when match is found
the
script stop only the first user get the mail
Procmail is not an MTA. You're attempting local delivery based on info
which is not in the message headers, but is instead in the envelope -
information which isn't really passed along to procmail (unless you've
modified the procmail invocation in your sendmail.cf). This is a
long-standing and very well known limitation of procmail - you really
don't
use it to pick out individual recipients from a message for final
delivery
- when invoked as LDA, procmail was told the logname (local username,
not
email address) of the user for which this email is being delivered.
You might try making use of the $LOGNAME variable:
:0:
* LOGNAME ?? (user1|user2)
/var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME
Of course, this is assuming that this lists.rc file is being included
into
a global procmailrc at /etc/procmailrc, since if you're running it from
a
user .procmailrc, that user should have absolutely NO rights to write to
some other user's mailbox.
