Hi all, I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I can't get
procmail to work here. Here's my recipe file:
------------------
SHELL=/bin/sh #Use the Bourne shell (check your path!)
MAILDIR=/var/mail #First check what your mail directory is!
LOGFILE=/home/procmail.log
LOG="--- Logging ${LOGFILE} for ${LOGNAME}, "
:0:
* $ ^To:.*PROCMAILTEST
| /home/procmailtest.pl
:0:
${DEFAULT}
------------------
The "procmailtest.pl" script is a simple perl script that increments a
number in a file by one.
When I send an email to PROCMAILTEST(_at_)hi-beam(_dot_)net, the message goes through
without, apparently, running the script or generating a log file.
I have been able to get procmail working using Timo Salmi's proctest
script. There is a line in the output from that script that says "Couldn't
determine implicit lockfile from /home/procmailtest.pl". Not sure what that
means, but it does successfully lock and execute the script.
Anything obvious I'm doing wrong? I've poured over the FAQs and man pages
and can't figure it out.
thanks kindly.
Scott
