I understand what the '-d' is for, but what is the '$s' required for?
the -d flag for procmail says:
-d recipient ...
This turns on explicit delivery mode, delivery will
be to the
local user recipient. This, of course, only is possible
if proc-
mail has root privileges (or if procmail is already
running with
the recipient's euid and egid). Procmail will
setuid to the
intended recipients and delivers the mail as if it were
invoked by
the recipient with no arguments (i.e., if no rcfile
is found,
delivery is like ordinary mail). This option is
incompatible with
-p.
So, the $s is the recipient in fetchmail which will be passed to the
procmail process.
