Subject: Extracting on the msg body and writing it to a file
Does anyone have a procmail recipe that will extract only the
content of the msg body and save it to a file? I've been playing
with a few options using formail and procmail and haven't been
successful yet.
I think you want to use the 'b' flag here (man procmailrc):
b Feed the body to the pipe, file or mail destination
(default).
as follows:
BODY_FILE="filename_of_your_choice"
:0 b:
| cat >> $BODY_FILE
Above, the ":" following the 'b' indicates default locking, which will lock on
the $BODY_FILE, which is probably something you want to do. Note that this is
a delivering receipe, so no further processing will be done. You can modify
that behavior with the 'c' flag, telling the recipe to operate on a copy.
