Hello Troy,

OK.  Turns out the system is running Postfix, not Sendmail.

Procmail is 3.22



From=20the maillog:

My .forward file:

LOGFILE=3D/tmp/procmail.log
|/usr/bin/ask.py --loglevel=3D10 --logfile=3D/tmp/ask.log --home=3D/home/a8=
targazer



I also noticed a bunch of directories in /tmp:

drwx------    3 asktest  asktest      4096 Jan  1  2000 /tmp/asktest-tmp.10=
3e98e
