I have a *very* newbie question re Mail::Audit. If somebody would even be
kind enough to point me in the right direction, I would be obliged.
I'm setting up a filter in my .forward file, which has the single line
reading:
| /home/me/bin/filter
The file /home/me/bin/filter reads:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Mail::Audit;
open LOG, "> /home/me/Mail/mail.log";
my $incoming = Mail::Audit->new;
my $from = $incoming->from();
print LOG "Message received from $from...n";
$incoming->accept;
When I have this filter in place, NOTHING comes through. When I remove my
~/.forward file, all my mail comes flooding in.
I've checked the obvious...my ~/bin is not world-readable, nor is my home
directory or the /home/bin/filter file. Beyond that, I'm stumped.
Help?

A quick PS...in case the question comes up, the only purpose behind this
script is for me to learn how to use Mail::Audit with a simple script so I
*really* don't hork things when I get down to work.
Thanks again.

It's a sendmail question, not a Perl question.
Assuming your username is douglas, one thing is that you may want to
try this additional line in the .forward file:
