What is the trick to get Postfix's local command to pipe mail through procmail?
I have:
-bash-4.1$ grep allow_mail_to_commands /etc/postfix/main.cf allow_mail_to_commands = alias, forward
and
-bash-4.1$ cat .forward |/usr/bin/procmail
and a .procmailrc file:
-bash-4.1$ cat .procmailrc PATH=/usr/bsd:/bin:/usr/bin:/exp/rcf/share/bin MAILDIR=/var/lib/amanda/Mail #you'd better make sure it exists DEFAULT=$ORGMAIL #completely optional LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/from #recommended
:0
- ^From.*no-reply@sns.amazonaws.com
|$HOME/retrieveArchive.tcl
:0 ! heller@deepsoft.com
Basically I want all mail to the Amanda Backup account, except messages from Amazon SNS, to be forwarded to me (the system admin). The retrieveArchive.tcl is a script to process Amazon SNS messages.
It's this simple:
Instead of putting a call to procmail in your .forward, first, set up /etc/postfix/main.cf with the following line:
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail
and reload postfix. Now, postfix will default to using procmail as its local delivery agent.
Now, set up /etc/procmailrc like so:
USER=`whoami`
:0 fw | spamc
:0 e { EXITCODE=$? }
I don't have spamassin set up -- it is not needed, since this is not a public facing E-Mail server, it is internal only. Do I need this file?
Now, set up the amanda user's .procmailrc rules like so:
:0:
- ^From.*no-reply@sns.amazonaws.com
|$HOME/retrieveArchive.tcl
:0:
! heller@deepsoft.com
Voila!
Actually not. Postfix is now using procmail, but procmail is not processing .procmailrc...
My bad...no, you can skip the /etc/procmail recipe portion that calls spamc...you don't need that.
Comment/remove that bit, and then give it a go. Remember to issue "service postfix reload" after editing the main.cf file.

So how would you pass the email through SpamAssassin, if you wanted to?

Run spamd, and include the spamc call that I listed, previously.
