The way this should work is as follows:
- new e-mail arrives at the recipient's box and procmail picks it up and checks the X-Forward-For headerAND
- it is at this point that I want it to also forward a copy of said message to the second e-mail addressThe first rule works as expected. Message comes in, first rule checks it and upon failing, bounces back out to gmail. Nothing happens after that. When the message returns, it passes the first rule and gets dropped in the recipient's box. When I added the second rule, nothing changed. The first keeps running as is and the second is simply ignored.
Now, perhaps I'm wrong in thinking that when it comes back and passes the first rule, it will also run through the second rule. Is this a case where I need to write things wrapped in a nest? Sort of like an IF .. THEN .. ELSE?

to log so I just need to figure out the other two. However, I recreated the
same recipe on the test account and what I'm seeing in the log is the first part
of the recipe only, it doesn't seem to do anything with the second part.
So this (adjusted for the test account):
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail
VERBOSE=yes

Ashley, it might pay to explicitly say, in words, what you think you
want to do if the first rule passes, if the first rule does not pass
and the second rule passes, and if neither rule passes.
As it is your description of passing the first rule is the correct
action for what you've developed as a rule. You have delivered the
email and rule processing ceases at that point. So you might have
to clone the output of the first rule to pass it to the second rule
IF that is the action you want based on your disappointment at these
rules doing what you told them to do.
