You appear to be a little lost here, Amit. I'll try to shed some light
for you.
I think you want to use formail with the -s option in the .qmail file.
Send one message on to preline as in the default .qmail file, and send
another to your perl program. Then have your perl program do its thing.
You should use perl capabilities to grab $from and $subj values as they
pass by (from your input file), then post to the web site once you have
both variables. If you reach the end of the input file before finding
the variables you're looking for, you should terminate appropriately,
perhaps by sending an email notification or log message somewhere.
Note, I don't believe you can invoke formail from your perl script as
you've done, as you haven't given it any input or output. formail is
designed to use stdin and stdout, in traditional *nix fashion.
HTH.

I'm trying with formail. Please find details below how I'm
proceeding further. May be I'm somewhere wrong and someone may
correct me.
Initially I'm trying with my postmaster email id as that email id is
not used by anyone.
1) .qmail file of postmaster
|/var/qmail/bin/preline /usr/bin/maildrop -A 'Content-Filter:
maildrop-toaster' /etc/mail/mailfilter
|./sms1.pl <http://sms1.pl>
Here sms1.pl <http://sms1.pl> is my perl script.
2) Content of sms1.pl <http://sms1.pl>
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Shell;
use HTTP::Request::Common;
use LWP::UserAgent;
$from = system('formail -zx From:');
$subj = system('formail -zx Subject:');
#$msg = 'Test Amit ';
$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ua-> request(POST
'http://59.162.167.36:8085/api/MessageCompose?user=username:password&senderID=AMITTEST&receipientno=mymobno&msgtxt='.$from.'&reseller=myresellerid&state=2'
<http://59.162.167.36:8085/api/MessageCompose?user=username:password&senderID=AMITTEST&receipientno=mymobno&msgtxt=%27.$from.%27&reseller=myresellerid&state=2%27>);
Problem is I'm getting sms when any mail comes on postmaster email
id but I'm getting value 0 in sms.
Thanks and Regards,
Amit

The message header extraction was actually from using formail
not procmail
so see if you can use that.
