Autoresponse won't send

2004-07-02 13:09:13
I'm brand-new to procmail and my very first recipe doesn't work. I'm trying to set up a simple autoresponder, matched on the Name of the sender. The right messages get matched correctly but no autoresponse is sent. Here's my code:

        SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail

        :0:
        * ^From.*Mike Schuppe
        * !^FROM_DAEMON
        * !^FROM_MAILER
        * !^X-Loop: test678(_at_)michaelbluejay(_dot_)com

        | (formail -t -r -A"X-Loop: test678(_at_)michaelbluejay(_dot_)com " ; \
cat "Your message was tagged as nuisance and deleted. If you have a legitimate message, please visit my website and send your mail through the form there." )\
        | $SENDMAIL -t

        :0
        $HOME/Maildir/

-----------------
I'm not really interested in alternative solutions (using pre-made spam filters, throwing the messages away without responding, etc.), I really just want to get this to work. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

By the way, the line that begins with "cat" is unbroken, even if it shows as broken once I send this message.

Thank you very much for your help,  -MBJ-
