formail with procmail

priyesh · 10-21-2003, 05:10 AM

I 'm using procmailrc to filter messages

I want to get the from address to a variable say FROM how can I do that?

I tried like this...
.FROM=`formail -xFrom:`

but I 'm getting the first part say name but not the full e-mail id.

for eg: if "Priyesh" <priyesh@britekindia.com> is the from address, I 'm getting "Priyesh" but not the later part...

How to solve this issue?

Try FROM=$(formail -rtzx To:), it should be the email address from the $(formail -zX From:) line.
