Ah, that's better, I tried piping through a mail with a PDF attachment
myself and it does seem to fail:
% cat mailfilter.bug332543
cc "|/bin/true"
% maildrop -V2 mailfilter.bug332543 < testmailpdf
Message start at 34 bytes, envelope sender=joy
maildrop: Attempting mailfilter.bug332543
maildrop: Delivering to |/bin/true
maildrop: error writing to mailbox.
maildrop: Unable to deliver to mailbox.
% echo $?
75
My file happened to be 630KB. strace reveals that it happens because the
child process exits before all the data from maildrop's write() call gets
through, which produces an EPIPE and the temporary error exit.
To which program are you piping your messages, just in case it matters?
