Thank you for the advice.
One thing that I am not sure, shall I avoid any ${DEFAULT} in the rcfile
since it is not a local delivery?
Well, what I do is specify the delivery action as the argument to the
rcfile, and I don't happen to be invoking the /etc/procmailrc, but some
other purpose-specific rcfile (within /etc/procmailrcs/). Invocation would
be more like so:
jsmtih: "|/usr/bin/procmail -m /etc/procmailrcs/forward.rc
jsmith(_at_)newaddress(_dot_)tld"
At the bottom of my seneschal filterset, I have:
# Default rule - pass off to majordomo (using config we were passed).
# Passing the message through formail to strip the X-Envelope-From: header
# we added isn't strictly necessary, but this restores the message to
# the condition it was originally received in.
:0
| formail -I "X-Envelope-From:" | $DELIVERY
Delivery was set to $1 in a settings file, and this handles further piped
delivery just fine. You could just use $1, but this variable assignment
makes it easier to follow in the rcfile.
I will do that.
Er, I failed to post the url: <http://www.knoppix.de/>
It's a free download. Quite a handy tool to have in the computer toolbox,
even if you normally use windoz.
