Okay, I was beginning to conclude that, though I still don't know about
low-numbered exit codes.
However, David Tamkin asked me privately what I also was wondering
after reading the procmail man pages (and procmailex has related stuff
to say too); namely, what happens if in procmail we specify EXITCODE=0,
but in TRAP we set it otherwise? The man pages don't seem to
discuss that, and I have no idea if it's a valid thing to want to do.
Valid mail system exit codes are defined in <sysexits.h>. Legal values
are 0 (EX_OK), and 64-79. Examination of the procmail source code will
be required to find out what procmail does with EXITCODE values not
covered by <sysexits.h>.
Okay, understood; but that still doesn't answer the question of
what happens if procmail says the EXITCODE is 0 but TRAP says it's
not zero. Who wins? Does the TRAP value get sent to the MTA,
or just to the shell?
