as an example.

Is there a handy script/command for parsing this message for the From/Subject/... header info and resending it to another address, while preserving their attachments, etc.?

for f in $MAILDIR/new/* do sendmail user@domain <$f done

Yes, but that will not preserve the MIME encapsulation.

Yes, it will.

It will just send the base64 encoding as text.

No, it won't.

It will appear as gobbledy-goop to the user,

Only if the original message was gobbledy-goop.

I couldn't get Postfix's sendmail to do anything puke it back in my face, but did MIME encapsulate it. BSD Mail actually actually sent the mail, but did not encapsulate it.

Here's the sendmail message:

This is the Postfix program at host haggis.homelan.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to <postmaster>

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the attached returned message.

The Postfix program

<me@haggis>: mail forwarding loop for me@haggis

Your postfix configuration is broken. Has nothing to do with the sendmail command.
