I'm trying to set up a simple rule to be used by the filter program
and am not having much success. I'm running Elm 1.5b under version
2.0 of Gould's UTX OS. I don't know what version of filter I have.
The filter rule works fine when I test it interactively by piping
the output of readmsg into filter, so I'm inclined to believe that
the rule is OK. Just in case here my ~/.filter-rules file:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# ~/.filter-rules
#
# Filter rules for the Elm filter program
#
# rule 1
if (lines >= 1) then savecopy "/u7/gregg/mail/mail.recvd.%m"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I've have tried all of the following in my ~/.forward file with
the same results - all mail is deleted, with no (noticable) filter
errors being produced.
|filter
"|filter"
"|filter >> /u7/gregg/.filter_errors 2>&1"
Can and would someone please help me determine what I'm doing
wrong or why this isn't working?
Please e-mail responses to me since there is problably some
simple reason that everyone (else) is aware of. I'll post the
answer(s) to the net if I receive more than a couple of requests
for a copy of the answer(s)
Thanks,
Gregg
