Wouldn't it be better to build your own script around sendsms to pre-process you sms messages ?

Kind regards, Martin List-Petersen

Hi!

I'm using the following construct to send SMS notifcations on each incoming e-mail:

cc "|/usr/bin/sendsms 123123123"

The problem is, that I don't want sendsms (perl script) to be injected with full message body. I'd rather it close stdin as soon as it collects all necessary headers and/or body parts.

If the script closes its STDIN before reading the whole message, maildrop treats it as an error and exits with EX_TEMPFAIL. I'd like to force maildrop to ignore pipe write errors when needed (but of course still care about exit status, and exec() failures). I've done a patch that allows using '%' in place of '|' when such behavior is needed.

Could such feature be included in future maildrop releases ?
