Oy. "^TO" is about the worst way -- and "^TO_" the second worst -- to figure
out whom the message is for.
Dallman's answer to set DROPPRIVS should do the job, but use $LOGNAME to
figure out the recipient:
DROPPRIVS=yes
:0
| /usr/sbin/dmail +$LOGNAME
Now, I don't know what dmail does, so maybe that should be a filtering recipe
instead, so that the output of dmail comes back to procmail? Otherwise, it
seems you might as well use dmail without procmail as the LDA in the first
place.
