Sadly, there is a lot of ancient advice about procmail still floating
around the Internet. The advice above was written in the context of
Sendmail calling /bin/sh to handle writes to pipes (i.e. the "prog"
mailer in sendmail). The string following the "|" symbol is actually
a shell command, i.e. "execute /usr/local/bin/procmail or exit with
a status of 75 if you are unable to do so".
It looks like exim is trying the execute the "exec" command by finding
and invoking a program named "exec" but there is no such program; "exec"
is a command built-in to the Bourne shell and its workalikes.
Try changing your .forward entry to
"|/usr/local/bin/procmail"
or
"|/bin/sh -c 'exec /usr/local/bin/procmail || exit 75'"
Unfortunately, none of the above seems to work. Maybe I will get more luck
asking on the exim list but thank you again for your help.
Warm regards,
