As I alluded to, and Nick confirmed, the portions of the file name
which are problematic aren't generated by procmail, so this won't do much good.
Next, surely you mean the 'mv' command - 'rename' is a dos-ism.
The drive: bit is a holdover from CP/M (which didn't so much as grok
subdirectories - neither did the first version of MS/DOS). Sadly, I
AM old enough to remember this stuff.
Cygwin remains probably the easiest solution, and has the benefit of
adding utility to a windows box (including such tools as rsync and rdiff).
