True. In fact, from the manual POP3 interaction I did (to see if "help"
would list any extensions), it appears to be an NT system :-(

All I have control over is the system that uses fetchmail to get the
incoming email from the POP3 mailbox, and feeds that to exim.

I'm not counting on too much expertise at the ISP side; they haven't
even been able to get their so-called "smarthost" to accept outgoing
email (messages get rejected because the silly NT MTA thinks I'm trying
to relay via that system (which I am) as a third party (which I'm not).
Thank goodness for a full-featured MTA locally that doesn't need a
smarthost ;-)


However, all that aside: I still don't know what I'm doing wrong with
the "exists" test, and whether such tests can actually be done in a
filter (a quick try with eq also failed).
