Re: inconsistent recipie failure

Hello Robert Bonomi,

Am 2011-01-24 04:38:46, hacktest Du folgendes herunter:
> Relevant ~/.procmailrc fragments
> 
>   MAILDOMAIN="r-bonomi[.]com"
>   MAILHOST="mail[.]${MAILDOMAIN}"

Should be:
    MAILDOMAIN="r-bonomi\.com"
    MAILHOST="mail\.${MAILDOMAIN}"

Should be:
    :0
    * $ ^Received: from [^ ]* \( *[^[].*${MAILHOST}
    /home/bonomi/{{filename}}

>     :0 wE
>     * <<mumble>>

Should be:
    :0E
    * <<mumble>>
    /home/bomomi/{{a different filename}}

Question:   Why do you pipe the WHOLE message to the "echo" command
            which does not support STDIN?

There is a 8 kByte Buffer limit and if a Message is bigger, your recipes
are screwed
