Aarg. I upgraded my system yesterday and smail stopped delivering my messages. I noticed that fetchmail was downloading, but then I didn't have any new messages in my folders. I couldn't find anything useful in the log files and I couldn't find the messages anywhere, so it looks like they went to /dev/null. I'm now switching to exim.
Does anyone have an example of exim filters which split list mail into different files? Does anyone know how to get procmail working with exim? Here is one of my attempted .forward files: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #lee" And here are the results from /var/log/exim/mainlog: 1998-10-26 23:12:40 0zY0Uq-0000CK-00 <= [EMAIL PROTECTED] H=freefall [192.168.1.7] P=esmtp S=3410 id="-l7NY.A.JiG.icUN2"@murphy 1998-10-26 23:12:40 0zY0Uq-0000CK-00 ** |IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> D=userforward T=address_pipe: "IFS='" command not found for address_pipe transport 1998-10-26 23:12:40 0zY0Uq-0000CN-00 <= <> R=0zY0Uq-0000CK-00 U=mail P=local S=4246 1998-10-26 23:12:41 0zY0Uq-0000CK-00 Error message sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1998-10-26 23:12:41 0zY0Uq-0000CK-00 Completed 1998-10-26 23:12:42 0zY0Uq-0000CN-00 => [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=smarthost T=remote_smtp H=mail.mindspring.com [207.69.200.195] 1998-10-26 23:12:42 0zY0Uq-0000CN-00 Completed Please cc: replies. Before I removed my .forward exim generated quite a few errors to debian-user-request. I'm afraid I may be kicked off the list. -- Lee Bradshaw [EMAIL PROTECTED] (preferred) Alantro Communications [EMAIL PROTECTED]
