procmail with exim - procmail_pipe transport returned 73

2003-07-04 09:13:42
Hello again,

I've got another procmail-problem :-) (In fact I think it's a procmail problem, but it could also be an exim problem... :( )

Thats my problem:

 / # exim -v -M 19YSjh-0005rO-00
delivering message 19YSjh-0005rO-00
LOG: 0 MAIN
== dbrpriv(_at_)hannover(_dot_)sgh-net(_dot_)de <dennisb(_at_)tetaworx(_dot_)de> T=procmail_pipe defer (0): Child process of procmail_pipe transport returned 73 (could mean can't create output file) from command: /usr/bin/procmail

The error also occurs with an empty(!) .procmailrc in my home. There is no /etc/procmailrc. (Later I want to invoke spamassassion via the global procmailrc on that system, too, as discussed on this list befor)

The exim-transport is as follows:

procmail_pipe:
  driver = pipe
  command = "/usr/bin/procmail -d ${local_part}"

The exim-director is as follows:

procmail:
  driver = localuser
  transport = procmail_pipe
  require_files = ${home}:${home}/.procmailrc:/usr/bin/procmail
  no_verify

We're using exim 3.35 and procmail 3.22 here.

What I can't understand is, that we use the same setup on another machine and there it works. So I don't know where there's a difference... :(

What could be the reason for the error above? Where can I search for more information or explanation? Can I enable a verbose logging or something like that?

Where does procmail want to create an "output file" ? There seems to be enough space free an the device with /var/spool/mail...

Thank you very much again,

Dennis Breithaupt
