Subject: [Exim] piping problem
This pipe isn't working for some reason. Other pipe programs seem to
work. It's being run from the /etc/aliases file.

test1234: "| /bin/cat >> /var/mail/test1234"

The results are:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

  pipe to | /bin/cat >> /var/mail/test1234
    generated by test1234@???
    Child process of address_pipe transport returned 1 from command:
    /bin/cat


What am I doing wrong?
