OK, you do not want things to continue processing. So what I posted will
not solve your problem.
So what you have for rule 1 is:
not Xforwarded to both kirash4@xxxxxxxxx and ashley@xxxxxxxxxx
and not xforwarded to both kirash4@xxxxxxxxx and ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx
and not from kirash4@xxxxxxxxx
and not to ashley@papillon.pcraft.__com
forward to kirash4@xxxxxxxxx
What you have for rule two is the first half of rule 1 to another
recipient:
not Xforwarded to both kirash4@xxxxxxxxx and ashley@xxxxxxxxxx
and not xforwarded to both kirash4@xxxxxxxxx and ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx
forward to salesdept@wherever
Is this a general rule for all mail coming into the system to any
recipient? Presuming it is then email to george@xxxxxxxxx will be
sent off to kirash and processing ends there since it fails all the
conditions and the conditions are anded and inverted.
Mail to kirash will fall through both rules.
Mail from kirash will match the third test which means it's false
when inverted and the mail falls through to the second rule and gets
forwarded to salesdept.
mail to ashley will fall through the first rule and be diverted salesdept
by the second rule.
Mail that has been xforwarded to kirash and ashley (at either address)
passes one of the first two rules which when inverted fails the procmail
rule for both rules 1 and 2 so they simply pass through.
So have account phil at phoo.com send a message to george@xxxxxxxxxx
and see what happens. I believe it should pass through. So you'd see
both rules hitting. You can forge a test message and feed it through
procmail to see what happens with the rule.
For testing let's try this set of rules:
:0
* !^X-Forwarded-For: kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
ashley@xxxxxxxxxx <mailto:ashley@xxxxxxxxxx>
* !^X-Forwarded-For: kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
* !^From.*kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
* !^To.*ashley@papillon.pcraft.__com <mailto:ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
/tmp/foo1
0:
* ^X-Forwarded-For: kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
ashley@xxxxxxxxxx <mailto:ashley@xxxxxxxxxx>
* ^X-Forwarded-For: kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:ashley@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
/tmp/foo2
/tmp/foo3
That should sort the mail to three different destinations in /tmp. You
can easily see where the messages go as you try variants without polluting
mail boxes.
I'm wondering about this line in the first rule:
* !^From.*kirash4@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:kirash4@xxxxxxxxx>
Is that really what you mean? I presume it is. But if it's not that could
lead to confusing results when you test.

No, the second rule should ONLY process when a message passes the first rule
(and does NOT get bounced out to gmail.) I believe, please correct me if I'm
wrong here, but I believe the way you've rewritten it, rule 2 will ALWAYS run,
regardless of the outcome of rule 1. This will result in duplicate message
being sent to the second e-mail address.

The basic rule to remember with procmail is that once the email is
delivered processing is ended. So if the rule passes you must then
clone the email and deliver the clone. That allows the rules to keep
on processing.
I imagine you also want the second rule to continue processing as well.

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 header
- if the header does NOT contain any of those listed, it forwards the
message to
the specified gmail address
> STOP <
- if the header exists and contains any of the matches listed, the
message gets
dropped into the recipient's inbox
AND
- it is at this point that I want it to also forward a copy of said
message to
the second e-mail address
The 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?

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.
