Thanks for the tips. I made some changes, read some docs, made more
changes, and now get this in my maillog...

I set both the .procmailrc and .forward permissions to 644.

| For security reasons procmail will only use an absolute or

| .procmailrc:

| | formail -r -I"To:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" \
| -I"Subject:Mail received at DNSI account" | $SENDMAIL -t
