It's an example from man procmailex:
:0 fhw
| formail -k -X From: -X Subject:
I do get the desired result, but I also get a line of binary garbage logged
to
procmail.log (see below, it's always the same).
I found the reason for this, it happens because procmail loses the original
From
line in the process. The result is then something like
procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock
h
Folder: testfolder 417
If it doesn't lose the From line it looks like this:
From kai(_at_)example(_dot_)com Wed May 19 02:42:26 2004
Subject: test
Folder: testfolder 466
It apparently doesn't have any bad effects for the operation, but one can avoid
it by using:
| formail -k -X "From:" -X "Subject:" -X "From "\
this will reconstruct the From line.
