I have need to forward a limited amount of email that I get on to my
wife's account. I have checked a number of different places, and have
found that perhaps the easiest way to do that is with the condition
! wife(_at_)somewhere(_dot_)org
This is not a condition this is an action. The following
is a recipe ie condition and action:
:0
* keyword
! wife(_at_)somewhere(_dot_)org
Now you have condition: if the keyword found
then send the message.
But I've also encountered a recipe that invokes sendmail. It seems to
me that this is less efficient, but I'm not sure of that. Would
someone please comment?
man procmailex
I have also seen a suggestion, though I cannot find it again, that a
good way to deliver if the person's account is on the same server
would be to pipe to procmail using the -d switch, thus
You have no permission to write into inbox belong
to others. (I hope)
| procmail -d wife(_at_)somewhere(_dot_)org
Is there any advantage to doing things in this manner than simply
using the forward action?
