[ingo] vacation and procmail problem

[Markus Krause]

Hi List!

We are migration all our filters, forwarding and vacation setting of  
our users from ingo/webmail frontend filtering to procmail. filters  
and forwarding have been successfully integrated into procmail, but  
sending out vacation messages via procmail does not work!

our test account "test" has setup up a vacation reply via our new  
horde installation which leads to the following entry in .procmailrc:

---- .procmailrc part
   8: ##### Abwesenheit #####
   9: :0
  10: {
  11:   FILEDATE=`ls -lcn --time-style=+%s '.vacation.test' | awk '{  
print $6 + (604800)
}'`
  12:   DATE=`date +%s`
  13:   DUMMY=`test $FILEDATE -le $DATE && rm '.vacation.test'`
  14:
  15:   :0 Whc: vacation.lock
  16:   * $^To:(.*\<)?test
  17:   * !^X-Loop: test
  18:   * !^From.*noreply at there.com
  19:   | formail -rD 8192 .vacation.test
  20:     :0 ehc
  21:     | (formail -rI"Precedence: junk" \
  22:        -A"X-Loop: test" \
  23:        -i"Subject: out of office" ; \
  24:        echo "i am on vacation ..." \
  25:       ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t
  26:
  27: }
----------- end of .procmailrc part

but no vacation message is sent to the sender. the procmail logfile contains:

---- procmail.log
procmail: Executing "ls -lcn --time-style=+%s '.vacation.test' | awk '{ print
$6 + (604800) }'"

       ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t"

----- end of procmail.log

procmail filtering works with all other settings (filtering, sorting  
in directories, forwarding ...).

Does anybody has procmail with vacation messages working and can give  
me any hints?

Thanks in advance for any help!
