There's a pipe for the data (ie the mail message, what you are looking at). Where is the pipe for the COMMANDS? Confusing RFC 821 and RFC 822 … it takes a while to understand the different bits they address. Have you ever telnetted to port 25 and sent a piece of mail? Getting that down pat might help you to understand the two spaces (commands vs data) that are the issue here. Dealing with it in terms of pipes will not, because all you are seeing is the data, not the commands that carry the real information you are wanting to tweak. > This is a similar question on Serverfault: > > http://serverfault.com/questions/148135/postfix-how-to-keep-the-bcc-recipient-in-email-enveloppe > > > On Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 5:17 PM, Michael J Wise <mjw...@kapu.net> wrote: >> >> On Jun 19, 2012, at 1:02 PM, Chris Nagele wrote: >> >>> I am using Postfix to pipe messages to an external program.
