I use exim for my mailserver and its .forward file to do my delivery. I have this at the end of my .forward file:
################################################################################ # The rule to go to the inbox. ################################################################################ if not delivered then #save $home/.mutt/inbox #unseen save $home/.mutt/inbox.bak pipe "/usr/sbin/exim_lock -retries 1000 $home/.mutt/inbox \ \"$home/perl/line_breaks $home/.mutt/inbox\"" endif It sends the mail to the line_breaks script correcly, and that script runs correctly appending to my inbox. However I get an error mail from Exim containing the following: This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim). A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: pipe to |/usr/sbin/exim_lock -retries 1000 $home/.mutt/inbox +"$home/perl/line_breaks $home/.mutt/inbox" generated by [EMAIL PROTECTED] The following text was generated during the delivery attempt: ------ pipe to |/usr/sbin/exim_lock -retries 1000 $home/.mutt/inbox +"$home/perl/line_breaks $home/.mutt/inbox" What am I doing wrong here? Thanks, Jason ----- End forwarded message -----
