am working with procmail invoked through sendmail. Quota's are turned on
and working. However, the bounced Email has WAY too much information to
feed back to some sender who's receiving their message back. The scenario
here is that User 1 is using Pine to Email User2. User2 is over quota.
User 1 receives back a message that looks like this:
Date: Sat, 10 Jul 2004 15:00:28 -0700
From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON@localhost.localdomain>
To:
user1@localhost.localdomain

Ok, all the sender really needs to see is "Recipient Mailbox overquota -
Returned" or something similar....not this overly verbose output. Suggestions on where to look. My googling
has turned up nothing as yet as I cannot seem to hit upon the right keywords
to get me close. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!
