Good morning,

In my .procmailrc will this work to both append the email to an existing file
and also forward the email?

:0c
* ^subject:.*jacket
$HOME/trash/forwarded
! person@domain.com

Thanks,
NHD

You'll want the following:

Code: Select all

:0h
* ^Subject:.*jacket
$HOME/trash/forwarded
! person@domain.com
The above will scan the message headers, matching on a subject line ending in 'jacket'. The last two lines store a copy of the message in the mailbox file ~/trash/forwarded, then forward a copy to person@domain.com.

Does not seem to work for me,
But the following does work,


:0c
* ^subject:.*jacket.*puffy|\
{
:0c
$HOME/ztrash.procmail/forwarded
:0
! someone@domain.com
}
