Here's my procmail recipe:

email2sms | gnokii --sendsms <phone3> )
}
If you do it like this instead it will work as you want.

:0c

:0
* ^TOsmsalert\(_at_)dagupan(_dot_)com
| ( email2sms | gnokii -- sendsms <phone3>; )
I would ofcourse rather use the 'a'-flag on the <phone2> and <phone3>
recipe like this.

:0a

I receive the contents of the e-mail on phone1 but the succeeding phone
numbers receive only the character "?"
The reason for this is that the first pipe is one email only... So the
first program that reads it takes all the input and therefor there is
nothing left for the next two programs so email2sms outputs only '?'.
