procmail removing headers after forwarding

[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
Hi,

For some reason procmail isnīt duplicating the whole email when itīs forwarding.

/etc/procmail
Code:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/.mailbox/
DEFAULT=$HOME/.mailbox/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/from   #recommended


:0Hh
* .*\@letscall.nl
.INBOX.aliLC/new/.
This should forward emails that are ment for *@letscall.nl to a IMAP-subdir.
Don't look at the procmail-rules, those work fine. I just wanted to test something.


Orginal email (~/testmail.txt):
Code:

I tested it on 2 ways:
  1. Through mailbox_command in /etc/postfix/main.cf
  2. Through 'procmail < ~/testmail.txt'

Both forward the email correct, but everything after the "Content-Type" is removed


Does somebody know what's going on?

Greetz,

Ali

Add these lines to the procmail recipe file, then check the log?
Code:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
VERBOSE=on
DROPPRIVS=yes
LOGABSTRACT=all
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail.log
MAILDIR=$HOME/.mailbox/
DEFAULT=$HOME/.mailbox/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/from   #recommended

Code:
alitrix@r1k7s19:~/.mailbox/cur$ procmail < 1211666195.V806I64c00fM235567.r1k7s19.kdiss.com\:2\,S
procmail: [6085] Sat May 24 23:59:38 2008
procmail: Assigning "DROPPRIVS=yes"
procmail: Assuming identity of the recipient, VERBOSE=off
~/.procmail.log is empty
Code:
alitrix@r1k7s19:~$ cat .procmail.log

If I modify the config too this:
Code:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
VERBOSE=on
LOGABSTRACT=all
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail.log
MAILDIR=$HOME/.mailbox/
DEFAULT=$HOME/.mailbox/
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/from   #recommended

Problem solved.

I asked the ppl on the procmail-list. This is the answer:
Code:
You have several problems here:

'H' is the default (egrep headers) and doesn't need to be specified.
'h' specifically tells procmail to only deliver headers to the
filter/mbox/maildir

If you remove both you'll get the behavior you want.

Also, you shouldn't deliver directly to /new/ but just to the maildir
and let procmail handle putting emails in new.

With your regex, you should probably use ^TO or ^TO_.  You don't need
to escape '@' but you do need to escape '.'.  Your leading '.*' is
meaningless in the context that you are using it.

Try changing the recipe to:

:0
* ^(To|Cc):.*@letscall\.nl
.INBOX.aliLC/

Thanks for posting. It kind of confirms what I suspected, just didn't get around to testing it.
