Yeah something like:
action = empty mess; \
add mess message; \
add mess moremessage; \
copy mess %m; \
shellcmd /path/to/script "destination" "subject" "%m"
or
action = eval %m (return "message\nmoremessage"); \
shellcmd /path/to/script "destination" "subject" "%m"
are what I would try. Alternatively rewrite your script to accpet the
message on stdin and use:
action = empty mess; \
add mess message; \
add mess moremessage; \
report mess /path/to/script "destination" "subject"
which may be safer depending on what your messages are and how they are
constructed.
