*** Please type your report below this line ***

I wanted to extract something continuosly from a log file. 

I tried to do that with the command:
tail -F /var/log/mail/procmail.log | egrep "Folder| Subject:|Match" >> 
/var/log/mail/procmail.kurz.log
without the redirection to procmail.kurz.log it's working, a tail 
(without -F) and a cat (instead of "tail -F") each of the last two with 
redirection is working, too.

In the output of strace there never appeared anything similar to 
procmail.kurz.log neither with or without the "-F" option. So I guess
it won't help if I include the output of the strace command.


Despite this automatic report my System is a clean sarge
without any backports. (I've just the "sid main" in my apt-sources
for experiments with the (not running) kernel 2.6.12) 

Maybe this bug is related to #282799?

I hope you can correct it

Not a bug, the output is buffered, the output arrives in the file,
when the buffer is written.
