Hello,

Thanks !

Yes but where should I put the command, in the system filter file
directly, or via a pipe command indicating another shell script ?

When used it in the exim.filter I got :

Apr 21 02:22:50 - exim[7608]: 2005-04-21 02:22:50 1DOREp-0001cV-QV Error
in system filter: unknown filtering command "beep" near line 10 of
filter file

And in another shell script :

Apr 21 02:25:05 - exim[8071]: 2005-04-21 02:25:05 1DOREQ-0001bz-8F ==
|/pkg/etc/exim.beep <system-filter> routing defer (-1):
system_filter_pipe_transport is unset

So what seems to be the problem, what have I done wrong ?

Thanks,

regards,

Mathieu CATTIN.
