• Bit from DSA: changing procmail invocation

    From Adam D. Barratt@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 13 19:10:02 2023
    Hi,

    When invoking procmail, debian.org's mail configuration currently
    passes any extension address to procmail via the "$1" variable.

    The mechanism used for this is more difficult to support with the
    version of exim in the upcoming bookworm / Debian 12 release, and a
    survey of procmailrcs in use on master.debian.org did not show any
    obvious uses of the functionality. DSA are therefore proposing to
    update the exim configuration to stop passing the parameter in the near
    future.

    If you believe this change will cause you any issues, please contact
    DSA as soon as possible.

    Regards,

    Adam
    (for DSA)
