Hi, It's me again. I looked what's in the logfile of smail in an attempt to see what is wrong with my .forward and .procmailrc files. I cannot figure out what to do next, but it seems to me that it is something wrong _before_ procmail, so procmail does not get any mail to process.
I wonder why is this happening because I put the .forward file with the recommended text: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #cpopescu" with the following permissions: -rw-r--r-- 1 cpopescu cpopescu 67 Feb 2 18:14 .forward Here is a relevant part of the logfile of smail: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02/04/1998 22:36:19: [m0y0BYR-000I3ZC] Received FROM:[EMAIL PROTECTED] HO\ST:localhost PROTOCOL:smtp PROGRAM:sendmail ORIG-ID:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> SIZE:462 02/04/1998 22:36:20: [m0y0BYR-000I3ZC] Failed TO:"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/pro\cmail -f- || exit 75 #cpopescu" DIRECTOR:dotforward TRANSPORT:pipe ERROR:(ERR14\4) transport pipe: child returned status EX_2 (2) 02/04/1998 22:36:20: [m0y0BYS-000I8uC] Received FROM:<+> HOST:pitagora PROTOCOL\:bsmtp PROGRAM:smail SIZE:4694 02/04/1998 22:36:21: [m0y0BYS-000I8uC] Failed TO:"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/pro\cmail -f- || exit 75 #cpopescu" DIRECTOR:dotforward TRANSPORT:pipe ERROR:(ERR14\4) transport pipe: child returned status EX_2 (2) 02/04/1998 22:36:21: [m0y0BYS-000I8uC] mail moved to /var/spool/smail/error/0y0\BYS-000I8uC 02/04/1998 22:36:21: [m0y0BYR-000I3ZC] Error sent FOR:"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bi\n/procmail -f- || exit 75 #cpopescu" TO:postmaster 02/04/1998 22:36:21: [m0y0BYR-000I3ZC] Completed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any clues will be most appreciated.
