Re: Error while writing to "/usr/sbin/sendmail"

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for your response.

Let me give you more details. The relevant parts of .procmailrc are

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin
LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail-log
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail

# Set on when debugging
VERBOSE=on
LOG="
"
:0
* ^From.*(marriottrewards|kc.ap.citibank.com|@income.com.sg|@ntuc.org.sg| \
ticketcharge.com.sg|sisticbuzz.com.sg|tangoeast.com)
! mathelmr(_at_)nus(_dot_)edu(_dot_)sg

The log file says

procmail: Match on
"^From.*(marriottrewards|kc.ap.citibank.com|@income.com.sg|@ntuc.org.sg|
ticketcharge.com.sg|sisticbuzz.com.sg|tangoeast.com)"
procmail: Executing 
"/usr/sbin/sendmail,-oi,mathelmr(_at_)nus(_dot_)edu(_dot_)sg"
procmail: Error while writing to "/usr/sbin/sendmail"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/usr/sbin/sendmail -oi 
mathelmr(_at_)nus(_dot_)edu(_dot_)sg"

So the recipe seems OK in that I get a match, but then something happens.

By the way, what can I do about all the

procmail: Kernel-lock failed
procmail: Kernel-unlock failed

messages?

Thanks!

I am trying to use procmail to send some of my mail to another address.
[snip: error messages in log]

The mail does not get forwarded.

I have the following statement in my .procmailrc

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin

Any help would be appreciated!

Are you sure you included the recipe? I don't see the sendmail recipe
you mentioned earlier in your message...
