Hi all, Jeremy many thanks for inspirations. My fault was that I should use mda "procmail -d %T". Simply, man was read too fast.
Why I wanted to skipp MTA? Because MTA would call procmail ! There is a task. Boil water for tee having: a cattle, faucet with water, matches and gas cooker. The answer: turn on faucet, fill the cattle with water, turn the gas on, wait for boil. The question is: How will boil water an IT engineer having as in the task but the cattle is already full of water. Of cause he/she'll pour out water from the cattle. Then the task is reduced to the previous one.
