procmailrc piping

[PhoenixKV]

Hello,

 

We are using WHMCS on a server that unfortunately doesn't have a GUI to set up forwards to pipe e-mails into the support system.

 

We've been informed by our web host that we can create procmail recipes, however the one that we did create to test (we are using POP for the live ones at the moment - which I want to avoid) isn't filtering into the pipe, or if it is and is failing - its not being logged by procmail.

 

Currently our .procmailrc looks like (sanitized):

 

PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin                # Path Variables for the procmail session
MAILDIR=/var/spool/mail/[DOMAIN]        # Don't put 'www.' in front of your domain here
LOGFILE=$HOME/procmail.log                  # Keeps a log of email routing
VERBOSE=yes                                  # Verbose Error Reporting --values (no|off yes|on)
COMSAT=no                                   # set to no|off
# SENDMAIL=/usr/bin/sendmail                # sendmail location (comment in procmail only)

:0
* ^To.support3@[DOMAIN].com
| /home/[uSERNAME]/public_html/clients/pipe/pipe.php

 

The procmail.log file shows (sanitized):

 

procmail: Assigning "COMSAT=no"

procmail: Assigning "COMSAT=no"

procmail: No match on "^To.support3@[DOMAIN]"

procmail: Locking "/var/mail/[DOMAIN]/support3.lock"

procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/var/mail/[DOMAIN]/support3"

procmail: Opening "/var/mail/[DOMAIN]/support3"

procmail: Unlocking "/var/mail/[DOMAIN]/support3.lock"

Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated ... Google searches haven't turned up anything that isn't 500 pages long and easy for a procmail newb.

If you're not using cPanel or DirectAdmin you'll need to use the pop import method instead: http://wiki.whmcs.com/Email_Piping#Cron_Piping_Method

The piping method works in InterWorx as well ..... I'm just not sure I understand why this can't be made to work under procmail?
