HAS_PACKAGE autolearn=no version=2.60-bugs.debian.org_2005_01_02
Package: procmail
Version: 3.22-11
Severity: wishlist
from the man page :
any default values will override any preexisting environment variables,
i.e., procmail will not pay any attention to any predefined
environment variables, it will happily overwrite them with its own defaults
So, it wipes anything we try to set.
we use the -p to Preserve any old environment, and it wipes it...
it would be usefull to preserve the env var :
procmail ~/.procmailrc VERBOSE=on LOGFILE=`tty` <
/tmp/test/cur/1134493055.32704_1294.pecos:2,S
that would be nice if there was a way to divert values from the default,
to test.
thanks

Have you tried using both "-p" and "-m"? From the manpage:
If both -p and -m are specified, the list of preset environment
variables shrinks to just: LOGNAME, HOME, SHELL, ORGMAIL and MAILDIR.
If that's still not enough you could even use something like this
in your .procmailrc file:
:0
* MYMAILDIR ?? .
{ MAILDIR=$MYMAILDIR }
and this on the command line:
procmail MYMAILDIR=foo < some-message
So I don't think we need a new procmail feature for this.
