what i'd like to do is have every outbound message saved to a folder
based on the recipient's email address (easily done, and i already do
this...i've been doing this for years)
*and* (i came up with this one yesterday)
save an additional copy to a folder called, eg, sent-today. that way
i can look in sent-today and see what i sent today. and resend it if
the mta doesn't work right the first time, which is why i don't want
to just bcc myself on every piece of mail and use procmail to file it
away because that relies on the mta.
i tried setting fcc to
=foo,=bar
but then the copy just ended up in a folder called foo,=bar which is
no good. then i tried setting sendmail to this
set sendmail="tee -a sent-today | /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oi -oem"
but then the mail never got sent because tee put double copies of the
message in each of
sent-today
|
-t
-oi
-oem
which was useless. thank god tee couldn't write to my sendmail
binary. :)
the only thing left that i can think of is to use a small program as
sendmail that writes the additional fcc and then calls the real
sendmail to do the message submission. kinda icky.
is there a better way?
