Hello,
I'm feeling a bit dense... I'm trying to figure out the Exim filter file,
and after finally noticing that I needed a filter = true in the
userforward director, I still can't save to a file.
my filter file:
# Exim filter <<== do not edit or remove this line!
if $header_Subject: contains "123"
then
save /tmp/reject
else
pipe "/usr/local/bin/procmail -f-"
endif
and the result of mailing a file with 123 in the subject:
# exim -d 2 -M 0xQifj-0005XE-00
Exim version 1.70 debug level set to 2
set_process_info: 21538 1.70 delivering specified messages
delivering message 0xQifj-0005XE-00
set_process_info: 21538 1.70 delivering 0xQifj-0005XE-00

system_aliases director failed for spoier:

file is a filter file
userforward director generated /tmp/spoier.reject (pipe, file, or autoreply)
userforward director succeeded for spoier

Processing retry items
end of retry processing
end delivery of 0xQifj-0005XE-00
Same result if I try to save to $home/reject, failed to chdir, which is
baffling since mail gets delivered to /staff/spoier/mbox all the time...
Am I doing something dumb? I've RTFM several times.
Exim is running as root.
Thanks,
Skye
