No, -t contains the path to your message.txt file, but I do see that
the RECIPIENT variable expanded to null in the two places where it was
used.

That is quite possible. I had assumed you were using the Courier MTA.
Postfix is an entirely different animal. You will have to check which
environment variables are being set. Try this:

Put this line in your .mailfilter:

`env > env.txt`

(including the back-ticks)

This will drop a copy of the environment into the user's home
directory. You can take a look at this file to see which variables
are set and then modify your mailbot line to use those variables.
