Request Tracker program with procmail (fwd)

RT Users
1

I would like to use procmail to process the messages sent to RT, so I can
trash some messages before they reach RT.

Today RT is being called from the /etc/aliases (my-email:
|“/opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate securityadm correspond”, root, …) and not from
the procmail.

I’m using this recipe:

:0f

  • ^TOmy-email@address.com
    | “/opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate securityadm correspond”

But I’m receiving this error:

/opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate securityadm correspond: /opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate securityadm correspond: cannot open
procmail: Error while writing to “/opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate securityadm correspond”
procmail: Rescue of unfiltered data succeeded

From my-personal@email.com Tue Mar 27 15:49:49 2001
Folder: /var/mail/root

Any ideas??? Is anyone using procmail to call RT???

Thanks,

Hermann

Yup, I have a procmail thingy that looks like this:

:0:

  • ^Subject:.*WARNING.disk space usage.
    |/local/solaris_2.5.1/rt1.0.7/bin/rt-mailgate system correspond

You don’t need to use quotes.
