Here there are some sample files to tune up procmail configuration so that the system will divert each message to the
designed mobile phone number.
To divert all email messages make sure that the .procmailrc script located inside /etc/ folder looks like this
SHELL=/bin/sh VERBOSE=OFFHere you can download the script email2sms that you have to put in /etc/sms/scripts/.
MAILDIR=/mnt/flash/root/procmail
DEFAULT=/mnt/flash/spool/mail/mails
LOGFILE=/mnt/flash/spool/mail/procmail.log
#OUTFILE="/mnt/flash/spool/smsgw.out.XXXXXX"
OUTFILE=$(/bin/mktemp /mnt/flash/spool/outgoing/smsgw.out.XXXXXX)
:0
* ^Subject:.*
{
:0 b
| grep -v ^$ | sed '/To:/G' | /etc/sms/scripts/email2sms
}
Replace in the script the XXXXXXXXXX with the designed mobile number and if you want uncomment blocks to
add more destinations.
