Ah, sorry. My procmail is doing system-wide filtering and invokes spamc. From /usr/local/etc/procmailrc: :0fw | spamc :0: * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes /var/log/spam Also, procmail is the LDA >The following all assumes that the re-delivery process is already running >under the UID of the desired recipient, and that procmail was compiled >with the correct value for $DEFAULT. $DEFAULT is the default used by the vanilla procmail from FreeBSD 4.5's port. The default mail spool directory is /var/mail. The Perl script to redeliver runs as root. >If all you need to do is bypass sendmail: > > formail -s procmail < /var/log/spam/$file Accordingly, I would need to supply the user, right? So: formail -s procmail $username < /var/log/spam/$file But it results in this: /etc/mail# ./deliver_spam.pl procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" procmail: Couldn't read "/root/michelle" It does seem to be trying to find the mailbox. >If you need to bypass procmail filtering as well: > > formail -s procmail -m /dev/null < /var/log/spam/$file I get no discernable results from either the above or: formail -s procmail -m /dev/null $username < /var/log/spam/$file >If you want other procmail filtering but need to strip off spamassassin >markup first: > > formail -s spamassin -d < /var/log/spam/$file | formail -s procmail > >You can hopefully extrapolate from there, depending on exactly what it is >you need to accomplish. It appears your hope is for naught, unfortunately. I'm still confused as to how to specify the user in my script, and get procmail to redeliver to the correct mailbox, without filtering. .\\ichelle -------------------- Michelle Brownsworth System Administrator Willamette.Net http://www.willamette.net Phone (541) 465-3282 Fax (541) 465-1194 _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
