I am attempting to set up 'fetchmail' to directly use 'procmail' as its

suggestions for configuring the 'fetchmail' utility. I would add the
following to the 'fetchmailrc' file.

    mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d $s"

I understand what the '-d' is for, but what is the '$s' required for?

According to the fetchmail documentation, the definition would look like

mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T"

(but the latter is usually redundant as it’s what SMTP listeners
normally forward to).

Thanks, I will give it a try.
