[PLUG] procmail filter for 'no such person'

[Sandy Herring]

Bruce,

You mean "addressee unknown"? Like this?


## capture the address that caused delivery
:0
* ^X-Envelope-To: \/.*
{
	ENVELOPE_TO="$MATCH"
}

# bounce email not to me
:0
* ! ENVELOPE_TO ?? ^brucek at kingkon.com$
{
    # EX_NOUSER = 67 from sysexits.h
    EXITCODE = 67
    :0
    /dev/null
}


This assumes, of course, that your MTA/MDA is configured to add the
X-Envelope-To: header so that you can reconcile Bcc's, etc.

hth,
Sandy

p.s.    You may want to replace the /dev/null action with a delivery to a
        spam folder until you're content it's working.
