OK I wouldn't worry about the hanging from this output. I suspect it's just the SMTP client and/or server keeping the connection open in case a subsequent MAIL FROM was on the way.

Personally I would try to achieve what you are doing with a /root/.procmailrc file containing :0c !myem...@fastmail.fm :0 /var/mail/root Do you have an /etc/mailname? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
