[Mitch says:] I had written:
I was a little slow to realize how that works - that presumes that
$SUBJECT itself is already escaped at that point?
But then I tested. When I add the \ before the $SUBJECT I receive a reply which
literally includes "$SUBJECT"
I'm testing with a crazy subject : testing vac. msg?!@#$%^&*()[]{};':"
Here's my line from maildrop - please ignore the line wrap - it's on one line:
cc "| $MAILBOT -N -D 1 -d $UserFolder/BB-autoreply -t
$UserFolder/BB-autoreply.txt -T replydsn -A\"From: $UI_Name <$UI_Email>\"
-s\"Subject: AUTO-REPLY: (\$SUBJECT)\" -A\"Errors-To: nobody@nowhere\"
-A\"Precedence: junk\" -A\"X-Loop: $BADLOOP\" /usr/local/bin/sendmail -f ''"
I had tried -T reply too at some point though I don't think that would make a
difference - trying replydsn was me being curious.
When I trigger this the response I get is "AUTO-REPLY: ($SUBJECT)" so the shell
expansion doesn't seem to be happening.
Thanks again!
Mitch
