We are attempting to add the listname to mailing lists on our servers.  We have followed the format shown in the FAQs, and it is just not working!  We have also tried with and without the brackets [] for the listname.  We have the designated line uncommented and the  rc.local.s10 file we created has only the text shown below, for a list named test.

SUBJ=`formail -zx Subject:`   # extract the subject

:0fw

* ! ^Subject:.*\[test\]

* ! ^Subject:.Re: *

| formail -I "Subject: [test] $SUBJ"

 Should there be other language in there?  What are we missing?  How can we be sure that rc.local.s10 is even being called?

Thanks for any help!

FAQ referenced:

How can I add "[listname]" to all of the mailing list messages for easy filtering?

In your rc.custom file, uncomment the line that reads "RC_LOCAL_SUBMIT_10 = rc.local.s10", and make a file called "rc.local.s10" in your list directory, in that file put this:

---- Cut Here ----

SUBJ=`formail -zx Subject:`   # extract the subject

:0fw

* ! ^Subject:.*\[listname\]

* ! ^Subject:.Re: *

| formail -I "Subject: [listname] $SUBJ"

---- End Here ----

Be sure to replace "[listname]" with what you would like to be at the beginning of the subject line. (Posted to SmartList@Informatik.RWTH-Aachen.DE by Leigh Wolenczak ).
