The "if personal" test in the Exim filter language tries to do this.
It is equivalent to
if $header_to: contains $local_part@$domain and
$header_from: does not contain $local_part@$domain and
$header_from: does not contain server@ and
$header_from: does not contain daemon@ and
$header_from: does not contain root@ and
$header_subject: does not contain "circular" and
$header_precedence: does not contain "bulk" and |
$header_precedence: does not contain "list" and |
$header_precedence: does not contain "junk" |
You could code all these tests into a "condition" option on a director
if you wanted to, and add any additional sender tests you fancied.
