Hello,
I'm using procmail as the MDA from getmail. If Getmail sees procmail
has written to stderr, it will assume an error has occured, even though
mail is delivered successfully. Although there is an option in getmail
to ignore this, is there an explanation why, even when procmail delivers
successfully, it writes some logging to stderr?
Here is an example from getmail's log (I've split the long line):
2009-08-12 20:54:23 Delivery error (command procmail 536 \
error (0, procmail: [536] Wed Aug 12 20:54:23 2009
procmail: Assigning "LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail"
procmail: Opening "/var/log/procmail"))
And here's the corresponding part from procmail's log file (again I've
manually split long lines):
procmail: Assigning "DEFAULT=/home/sda/Maildir/"
procmail: Assigning \
"PATH=/home/sda/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
procmail: Assigning \
"LASTFOLDER=/home/sda/Maildir/new/1250106863.536_0.ubuntu"
procmail: Notified comsat: \
"sda(_at_)0:/home/sda/Maildir/new/1250106863.536_0.ubuntu"
From sda(_at_)foo(_dot_)bar Wed Aug 12 20:54:23 2009
Subject: test
Folder: /home/sda/Maildir/new/1250106863.536_0.ubuntu
And my procmailrc file:
VERBOSE=ON
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/
Many thanks for any advice,
Steve
