Today I discovered that mail intended for some RT queues was just being
dumped into /var/spool/mail/nobody due to an error in the procmailrc.
I examined the mbox file manually and filtered out spam. This left 8
valid requests.
What would be the easiest way to re-inject them into the mailsystem as
if they just came from SMTP? I figured out that sendmail cannot grok an
entire mbox... I'd first have to chop the bundle up.
Then, I'd have to remove headers such as "Delivered-To" that would make
the MTA think of a mail loop.
Finally, I'd have to reconstruct the original envelope recipient from
the To or Cc headers.
There should be an easier way....
