Question : Pipe email back to procmail

Hello,

I use a pipe command to pass certain emails I receive to a perl script.

Like this

|/usr/bin/perl /path/to/my/script/script.pl

In the script, I use to read the mail.

Like this: @mail = ;

It doesn't matter, but in the perl script I do some autoresponding
and other stuff.  It works great, flawless.

Now, when I'm done with the email, I want it to go back to
the original POP account it was meant for.

I asked my host provider how I could "pass the email" back to the
system so that it goes into the POP account it was originally meant for.

They said, "pass the email back to procmail".

How do I do that?

Some kind of pipe command back to procmail?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Eric Reynolds

Answer : Pipe email back to procmail

You could always ask the host provider for more details since they seem to have the answer for you!

You might find out more about the innards of procmail from their home page, the FAQ's seem pretty technical and might point you in the right direction.

I suspect someone will come along with a proper answer shortly ... I'm a windows rather than a unix bod ;-)
