This hit the nail on the head. Only one problem now. If I save an email to a "file" and do a:
cat <file> |/usr/local/bin/pager as user "nomad" it works great.
If I set this to use user nomad and try to run it my logs show:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I end up getting a bounce saying it couldn't submit the URL (using
LWP::Simple to submit).
Thoughts?
