RE: [cobalt-users] How can one create autorespondres?

["Gil Bechtel" <gil@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

what is procmail?

What do I physically do to create autoresponders
*not* including that vacation messaging. It's pathetic
that there is no support on such a simple feature
unix servers have used for years

Thanks

I am also trying to get this done, I have followed the few examples that I
have found but still no luck. This is what I have...

.procmailrc

--------
SHELL=/bin/sh
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail-log
VERBOSE=off

:0 hc
* ^TOabuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx
* !^FROM_DAEMON
* !^X-Loop: abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx
  | (formail -rtb -I"Precedence: junk" \
     -I"From: <abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx>" \
     -A"X-Loop: abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx"; \
     cat $HOME/ars/abuse.txt \
     ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t
:0 A:
$DEFAULT
---------

.forward
--------
"|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #ar001"
-------

I have checked the permissions, the .procmailrc and .forward where both done
via telnet not FTP. i'm just not getting anything back also when I do a
top -s is procmail supposed to be running? and if so how do I start it? I
type procmail at the prompt and it just sits there, Ctrl-C and I get an
error "procmail: Terminating prematurely" I am trying to accomplish this on
a RaQ2 with procmail v3.10

Any pointers??

Thanks
Gil
