Re: Sending an html vacation message via .procmailrc

How can I send a vacation message via .procmailrc,
here is what I do and it don't work!

Unfortunately you don't say how it is failing.  At a guess, if you had
included part of your procmail log file it would say things like: unable
to execute -A.  This would indicate where the problem is.

| (formail -r -A"Precedence: junk" \
-A"X-Loop: name(_at_)----(_dot_)--" ; \

You have a semi-colon there.  That ends the formail command.  The next
thing is:

-A"Mime-Version: 1.0" ; \

Which tries to run the program called '-A"Mime-Version: 1.0"' which
almost certainly doesn't exist.

Don't put semicolons between arguments!

Also, try running the command that you're trying to invoke on the
command line - that would also have shown you the problem.

Hope that helps,
Martin
