procmail filtering
Hi. probably not the best list to ask, but i've been trying and searching for awhile now, with not much success. I'm looking for a way to run my procmail filters on a directory containing emails I would like to filter. I'm using a Maildir email directory setup.

Procmail filtering on outgoing mail
I've been looking through mailing lists and FAQ, but can't find an answer to something I presume would be fairly simple, although I'm not really familiar with exim at all. What I want to do is get exim to pass _outgoing_ mail through certain procmail filters. Specifically, I want my From: address to be altered in certain cases, depending on who I'm corresponding with.

That sounds more like something to put in _front_ of the mail transport, not built into it. From your headers, it looks like you're using Sylpheed. I don't recall offhand how flexible it is about how to send messages. If you can give it an arbitrary command line, then you could send it to procmail with an argument to make procmail use a recipe file that falls through to exim after mangling the headers however you like.

good point. procmail actually cannot be configured as a filter. it's

You can rewrite the headers based on the conditions you want, it's just a matter of setting it up to do that. Exactly how you do that depends on the amount of data you have and how much administrative privileges should be required to update the rewrite rules. The easiest thing is probably to have an lsearch file with recipient addresses as the key and your From: header as the value. Then tell exim to replace the From: header with a new one if the address in the To: field is found in the file. Still, I think it will be better and easier to make your MUA do it (ala mutt's send-hooks). -D -- Who can say, I have kept my heart pure; I am clean and without sin? Proverbs 20:9
