Postfix After-Queue Content Filter doesn't work

i added the following line to the postfix master.cf

filter unix - n n - 10 pipe flags=Rq user=filter null_sender= argv=/tmp/filter.sh -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}

my test script filter.sh code looks like this:

#!/bin/sh
SENDMAIL="/usr/sbin/sendmail -G -i" # NEVER NEVER NEVER use "-t" here.
export HOME=/home/filter
SENDER="$2" #sender
shift
shift
shift
EMPFAENGER="$@" #empfaenger
#echo "SENDER=$SENDER" >> /tmp/logging.log
#echo "EMPFAE=$EMPFAENGER" >> /tmp/logging.log
touch itworked
cat | $SENDMAIL -f $SENDER -- $EMPFAENGER

When i send an email it will be delivered, but i its not piped through the script.

Does anybody know what i configured wrong?

PS:

Greetings Chris

You're missing a step. In your configuration file master.cf, the first service is:

smtp      inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd

you have to tell postfix you want to use your filter, so:

smtp      inet  n       -       -       -       -       smtpd -o content_filter=filter

Do not forget to execute postfix reload after editing this file.
