I'm trying to set a environment variable in my .procmailrc file and it's
not resolving the command.
The following example for setting DAY does not work.
# .procmailrc
# routes incoming mail to appropriate mailboxes
SHELL=/bin/bash # for other shells, this might need adjustment
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$MAIL # all mailboxes are in mail var
DEFAULT=$MAIL
DAY = `date +%m%d%y`
LOGFILE = $HOME/pm.log
LOGABSTRACT = "all"
VERBOSE = "on"
:0:
* ^(From|Cc|To).*gh.*illinois.*
ssbreport.$DAY
The file ssbreport.date just gets generated instead of the actual date.
I've also tried
DAY=|date +%m%d%y
to no avail.
The platform is RHEL3
