To whom it may concern,

I just got a false positive from exim system_filter (_I_ didn't
get the mail, but system_filter produced a bounce).
The offending mail can be found at

Your lusers will never learn to cope with their crappy software if
you try to protect them from all evil. I personally believe in
learning by pain, i.e. by reloading the system and restoring their
data from backup every week will teach them not to run every
shit wich comes floating round the net.

For those places with too many clueless morons using computers
(why dont't we give them a nice vt220 to connect to that flat
black box in the cellar?), I recommend adding
if $header_List-Id: contains "@"
then
unseen finish
endif

to the beginning of system_filter, so those who are subscribed on
security-related (and other) mailing-lists will just get their
mail and the listadmin is not annoyed by thousands of bounces
just because of some kinf of filter protecting the clueless.

Regards,
cmt
