I'm trying to resend some mail that was mistakenly delivered to
/var/mail/<user> instead of ~<user>/.mail before I got procmail
completely configured to deliver mail to spools in users' home
directories. I've been told that formail will do that, but I can't
seem to find an example, and my own attempts have been unsuccessful.
This seems like it would be a reasonable approach but it doesn't
work, unfortunately:
straylight# formail -s /usr/sbin/sendmail < /var/mail/mdb
Recipient names must be specified
It doesn't seem to get the recipient from the headers in the mdb
mbox-format file.
This needs to be doable from the command line rather than a procmail
recipe, so that I can have a script redeliver mail from each user's
file in the directory to their home directory's mailbox.
If you have a notion as to how this can be done, please cc to me as
I'm not a list member yet.
