Hi guys,

Currently I am managing my Debian servers via simple
commands in the Subject of a mail message with an empty body ...

Procmail would read the Subject and then perform a
certain command ...

For example:

If I want to start an Ftp server I would send an email with "Ftp
start" as the subject ... it works o.k for my needs ...

However ... I want to send more complicated commands
in the Body and not the Subject ...

For example:

When procmail gets an email with say "Execute command" in the
Subject ... I want procmail to pipe the command contained in the
body (a one line BASH command) to BASH ...

Here is an example of a command I would send in the
Body:

echo -e "\rLT 4>Body of email message\r\r" > /dev/ttyS1

Any pointers?
