Subject: [EXIM] Serializing local delivery to a procmail pipe
I've got a server that sends out mailings to a list of several hundred
thousand users every so often. They process bounces via procmail
delivering them to a separate folder. The problem is that when they send
out to the list, the volume of bounces is such that procmail thrashes on
locking the folder because exim spawns a delivery process on each bounce
message. So what I was wondering is if there is any way I can serialize
the delivery for this address, or possibly the transport that is used.
I've gone through the spec and the faq with little success finding
applicable entries, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Tabor
