Yes, but my concern is that while perl is processing one mail, another
arrives
and exim writes to the same file...
What about dumping the mail as individual files in some directory ??
Perhaps i could use something like $message_number as file name, if that
exists ??

okay, i think the documentation could be better on explaining this
part.
